The new Dell machines are doing a lot more of outstanding ACPI "things"
currently.  So much in fact, that they are exceeding ACPI_MAX_TASKS and
are throwing errors indicating thing:

the current value in sys/dev/acpica/acpivar.h of 32 is no longer
sufficient on the r420/r320 Sandybridge class of box.  

I am currently running with a value of 128 and doing a bit of testing.
