The message is produced by src/sys/dev/pci/pci.c -- it is not amd64 specific.
>... I booted a Jggimi amd64 live cd and did not get the error message.... That doesn't tell the mailing list very much. As that's *my* live media build, I can at least let them know that this means a 5.0-release GENERIC.MP kernel. (I'm a bit behind on live media updates.) I note that pci.c has had 4 patches since 5.0-release, the last in October. As you're running -current, you have them all. It's possible that patch 1.96 is the reason you see the messages, since that patch did touch that section of pci.c. You might consider building a kernel from source without that patch. You'll need to review FAQ 5 and the man page for cvs(1). Just as an FYI: A full dmesg is always recommended when posting to misc@. Fragments are not always helpful.
