Your going to have to send-pr it then.  Make sure you state in
the PR that the FreeBSD system has booted fine and is running
fine except for access to the CDROM drive, and make sure you 
state that you have tried several different CDROM readers in
the hardware.

The older Compaq deskpro's with onboard Adaptec SCSI controllers
(pentium pro 200 dual processor systems) had exactly the same
problem.  Replacing the IDE cdrom with a SCSI one worked.
