For what it's worth, I get the same with 5.1-RELEASE:

[tap at vimes mp3]$ uname -a
FreeBSD vimes.int.athame.co.uk 5.1-RELEASE FreeBSD 5.1-RELEASE #7: Sat 
Jun 14 23:09:29 EEST 2003     
root at vimes.int.athame.co.uk:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/VIMES  i386

[tap at vimes mp3]$ dmesg | grep fdc
fdc0: cmd 3 failed at out byte 1 of 3
fdc0: cmd 3 failed at out byte 1 of 3
fdc0: cannot reserve I/O port range (6 ports)

Does my floppy drive work? No idea, I never use it, and I'm 20km from it 
right now so I can't check.
