Just to close this issue - you are right, today upgrade to BETA2 fixed
the atacontrol problem.
(I did not have sources installed, it was minimal instalation on USB
flashdisk, hence I can't compare revision numbers. The system was
successfuly upgraded by 'freebsd-update -r 7.1-BETA2 upgrade')
Thanks again for you time and suggestions.
