That's not a verbose dmesg, ie one produced by either selecting booting 
with verbose messages from the startup FreeBSD menu, or by running 'boot 
-v' from the loader prompt; developers need to see all the gory details.

Unless the machine is remote and you can't restart it on powering down, 
I suggest taking Doug Barton's advice to get a clean message buffer, by 
running 'shutdown -p now' and then restarting it, selecting verbose 
boot, then saving /var/run/dmesg.boot .
