You shouldn't be running a LINT kernel.  If you aren't sure how to install
and boot a new kernel you probably should be running -stable (such as 
RELENG_6) rather than -current.  The specific breakage you are running into
has since been fixed, and it could be worked around by adding 'device atpic'
to your kernel config.
