Curiously, FreeBSD 6.2.0 has an *older* Intel ACPI-CA release (20041119) 
than DfBSD (20061109).

However, FreeBSD's ACPI devices have drifted some way (even at 6.2.0, 
and then some since) since Df's were forked off.  There are lots of 
changes.  I didn't spot anything that obviously looked like it might 
cause interrupts to go missing, but the problem's probably much to 
subtle to spot by inspection.

I don't know if the philosophy here is to minimise the differences and 
track the FreeBSD ACPI or maintain a separate implementation.  Either is 
non-trival, I'd say.  ;-)  Sorry I don't have a fix to suggest.
