s,/kernel,/boot/kernel/kernel, ;-)

well, strange enough result for me:

(kgdb) print cpu_ticks
$1 = (cpu_tick_f *) 0xffffffff8036cef0 <rdtsc>

Does this mean that kernel uses tsc? sysctl reports

kern.timecounter.choice: TSC(-100) ACPI-fast(1000) i8254(0) dummy(-1000000)
kern.timecounter.hardware: ACPI-fast

As I'd reported in the first mail, at least RELENG_6/amd64/GENERIC (SMP is on 
by default only on HEAD) behaves similarly.

There may be some hardware issues with this particular mobo though...
