Ok, what happened is that "device cpufreq" is now in GENERIC and the 
ichss0 along with it.

Setting

    set hint.ichss.0.disabled=1

on the loader prompt allows me to boot -- both my own kernel as well as 
the 9.1-RELEASE from CD. Solved... Annoying beyond belief, but solved.

Now, if only I could figure out, why my network card (3COM's 3C556 Mini 
PCI) is not seen by the 9.1...

It was working perfectly fine with 6.3 -- and still works with the 
FreeSBIE-2.0.1
