Um, -current has a cyclades driver that worked until the COMPAT_ISA
"junk" was removed.  5.2 has the same version as -current, so it should
work too.  Anyway, COMPAT_ISA is not used at runtime for pci cy cards.

The problem reported at the start of this thread may be caused by an
interrupt storm.  These usually have nothing to do with drivers.
Try booting without acpi, and configuring without apic (note:
apic != acpi).
