Might I suggest that you run -stable for a while until you are a bit
more familiar with FreeBSD?  The deprecation of DRM_LINUX was clearly
pointed out on the cvs-all@ when it happend, and people tracking
current really should be reading cvs-all at .  Also, being able to
identify what CPU your system has from the dmesg is a rather basic
task:

> dmesg | grep -A 2 ^CPU
CPU: Intel Pentium III (696.97-MHz 686-class CPU)
  Origin = "GenuineIntel"  Id = 0x683  Stepping = 3
  Features=0x383f9ff<FPU,VME,DE,PSE,TSC,MSR,PAE,MCE,CX8,SEP,MTRR,PGE,MCA,
CMOV,PAT,PSE36,MMX,FXSR,SSE>

Finally, specifically with regards to CPUTYPE=p4, gcc is known to have
some problems with -march=p4 even on P4 machines as has been discussed
on current@ several times in the past few months.  Following the threads
on current@ is a rather good idea when tracking -current much like
tracking cvs-all at .
