Or the code could be changed, so that this message is posted only once. About the sleep states, I've got no idea. I'd love to go to suspend. On all other machines I've ever run FreeBSD on "acpiconf -s 5 " started a clean shutdown. It seems extraordinary to me, to claim to support the states S3, S4 (BIOS!) and S5 and when trying to use them just get an "Operation Not Supported". That looks more like a FreeBSD bug to me. After my exams I'll experiment with acpidump to try insert a valid _CRT value for tz0. I don't think I can do more without learning aml.
