Is it possible to make devices enumerated by acpi to take notice of the
flags given to them in device.hints?

for example if I allow acpi then I get:
sio0 port 0x3f8-0x3ff irq 4 on acpi0
sio0: type 16550A, console
sio1 port 0x2f8-0x2ff irq 3 on acpi0
sio1: type 16550A

despite the fact that I have in device.hints:
hint.sio.1.at="isa"
hint.sio.1.port="0x2F8"
hint.sio.1.irq="3"
hint.sio.1.flags="0xc0"


which should reserve the port for gdb.

My answer is to simply do 
mv /boot/kernel/acpi.ko /boot/kernel/xacpi.ko
but it's be nice to have both the gdb AND the acpi abilities.


regards,
	 Julian
