It behaves

it stops

this.
when you boot, at the FreeBSD menu, break to the command prompt and
type this:
debug.acpi.disabled=timer
boot
and see if it works. I have one system on which 5.4 works
flawlessly, but anything from 6.0-REL and up requires I disable the
ACPI timer.
If it works, just add the above line to your /boot/loader.conf file
to make it stick across reboots.
