Apologies for the long reply.

I've installed 9-Current and have built agp.ko.
Building drm stops at /usr/src/sys/modules/drm/drm with a error for
the non existing specialreg.h. This module only seems available for
i386, amd64, and pc98.
There's no mention of such module while searching people.freebsd.org
or the mailing lists.
