build with SMP causes (multiple?) issues on my system

I'm sorry if I come across as long-winded, but I figure it's better than 
having to respond with the same information anyway.

I have a dual p3-850mhz system with a L440GX+-based motherboard.  It has 
onboard ethernet (intel chipset), onboard scsi, with a AIC-7896 
controller, a 18gb u160 scsi harddrive, a generic IDE cdrom & a floppy.

Out of curiousity, I installed DragonFlyBSD on it, using the 1.0 livecd, 
and ran the installer to perform the installation.  Everything went 
smoothly, and dfbsd was installed.  The system at this point displayed 
no hiccups.

But, of course, it didn't have SMP enabled, so I followed steps 4+ on 
this page: http://www.dragonflybsd.org/docs/upgrade-freebsd.cgi which 
describes the part about grabbing the supfile, commenting out a couple 
lines, and building the source.  Prior to building the kernel, I went 
in, copied GENERIC to flaky, and edited the file, uncommenting the two 
lines for SMP (options SMP and options APIC_IO).  I rebuilt everything 
as described on that page, 'cept for using KERNCONF=flaky where appropriate.

Ok, so that's the background.  Upon reboot, the system got to the line 
"Additional TCP options:." at the end of the boot sequence, and stopped. 
 Tried banging on the keyboard a little; no response, not even lights 
from hitting numlock/capslock.  Later on, I booted the system to this 
point and tried to see if it would respond to ctl+alt+esc (which I had 
learned from GeekGod), since DDB was compiled in, but that didn't work 
either.  I had also tried to see if the computer's network connection 
was alive, but that was dead as well, it was quite locked up.  This is a 
repeatable scenario for me.

So, I went back in (after some aggrivation with booting the computer 
from a livecd, since vi nor ee wanted to agree with me when in 
single-user mode, but that's a side story), and removed the SMP from the 
kernel config, rebuilt it, and rebooted, and ran into my second issue. 
Upon trying to reboot (from single-user mode while SMP was enabled in 
the kernel), it attemped to perform the normal "Syncing discs .. " 
followed by numbers, often eventually repeating the same number over and 
over, and gives up.  It prints out the messages:

giving up on 1 buffers
Debugger("Busy buffer problem")
CPU1 stopping CPUs: 0x00000001
 stopped
Stopped at      Debugger+0x23:  mob    $0,in_Debugger.354
and then it enters the debugger (the same one from hitting ctl+alt+esc). 
 Now, when I was talking to GeekGod, it was suggested that I type 
"panic" followed by "reset".  So, I tried typing "panic" and was greeted 
by a very interesting screen of text which probably makes sense to 
someone, and the line "CHKTOKEN loop 1" repeating over and over and 
over.  At this point GeekGod suggested that I really need to send a bug 
report in, and that pretty much brings this up to speed.

I'd have liked to have given a dmesg output from the system when it 
boots with SMP normally (rather than in single-user mode) but as I 
mentioned above, it locks up before I ever have a chance to do that.

So, included here are dmesg outputs from the system when it runs 
normally without SMP, and with SMP in single-user mode.

(at this point, it gives you the /bin/sh prompt)

There's two lines in all of that which I find interesting, the first of 
which is the warnings:
WARNING: #da/0x20000 si_iosize_max=0, using DFLTPHYS.
and the second of which is on the APIC_IO part:
APIC_IO: Broken MP table detected: 8254 is not connected to IOAPIC #0 
intpin 2
but, that could just be because they sound like bad things to me. :)

Any help from this point onwards would be very appreciated.  If you need 
any further information, I can reproduce the problems above rather 
easily, and can provide output in just about any format.

Thanks,
-Joe
