I'm afraid the result still the same (done with update/buildworld). My
various dmesg messages:

http://staff.mybsd.org.my/skywizard/FreeBSD/msi_acpi/

1) normal boot
   - dmesg.normal
   * Failed to detect at all.

2) debug.acpi.disabled="sysresource" (debug.acpi.disable yields
   nothing)
   - dmesg.disabled_sysresource
   * few attempts, detected on isa0

3) my dsdt hack
   - dmesg.dsdt
   * detected, on acpi0
