 This is no longer an issue in 8:
 
 FreeBSD xxxxxxxxx 8.0-RELEASE-p1 FreeBSD 8.0-RELEASE-p1 #0: Fri Dec  4 
 09:56:55 UTC 2009     root at new-host:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC  amd64
 
 [smcafee at xxxx ~]$ sudo ipmitool sdr list
 Temp             | 42 degrees C      | ok
 
 Not sure about 7 and can't test it, but I wouldn't object to this being 
 closed now as "won't fix" in any remaining affected branches.
