I have been wondering about this myself, so I searched for "shutdown
-p"+"freebsd"+"configuration" on google and found this:

http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-hackers/2004-January/005348.html

but neither "man sysctl" nor "sysctl -Ahe" shows a variable called
hw.acpi.disable_on_poweroff . There was a slightly suspicious looking
kern.shutdown.poweroff_delay, but it's set to 5000, and I'm pretty sure
I've shut the box down and come back ten minutes later to find the
screen still saying "hit any key to reboot" or whatever it was.

Hmm. Maybe I'll play with that a little later.
