I've been booting with various levels of CAMDEBUG (and it boots fine since the
output gives enough delay for init) and something occurred to me.  Do you also
have (n)atapicam compiled in?  I noticed that sometimes I would see messages
like this:

**WARNING** waiting for the following device to finish configuring:
  xpt:  func=0xc0144b4f arg=0

With CAMDEBUG I see why, xpt has to enumerate all the scsci, ata, and usb
bus/devices in the system.  xpt has to init before any of the scsi devs (or it
does, even if it doesn't _have_ to) so I wonder if some of the delay isn't
there.  I'm going to take out natapicam and see if things improve or not.
