Regression between 9-RELEASE and 9-STABLE [PCIB ?]

[Harry Newton]

Not really. Verbose suggests it completes the scan of the PCI to LPC
Bridge and PCI to PCI bridge. Comparing with a working verbose boot,
the next stage, which isn't reached, is HyperTransport Technology
Configuration.

Trying BUS_DEBUG, I got a lot of this:

device_add_child_ordered: 1813: (null) at pci with orer 0 as unit -1
make_device: 1698: (null) at pci as unit -1

I neglected to say before: the machine's been running FreeBSD 7-STABLE
quite happily with no problems.
