FreeBSD should, but isn't, assign resources to PCI devices.  In the
past, the BIOS has done this, but MS has migrated this functionality
into the OS.  That's why you see a lot of these sorts of failures with
various kludges in the FreeBSD tree.  That's part of what I was
talking about in the developers conference when I said we needed to
make PCI work again :-)
