I finally had a chance to retest, and so far FreeBSD is failing to boot with the i386 ISO also.  I have tested several versions:

6.1-RELEASE-i386-bootonly.iso
6.2-RELEASE-i386-disc1.iso
7.0-20070928-SNAP-i386-bootonly.iso

And they all give me the same error:

corrupt symbol?

This was the output of the 7.0-20070928-SNAP-i386-bootonly CD.

I still get the crash with the FreeBSD/amd64 CD, but the output is unreadable due to it constantly scrolling on the screen.  If I hold hold down the space bar as detailed in the PR, it will boot into sysinstall (7.0-20070928-SNAP-amd64-bootonly.iso)

I used the 7.0 SNAPs from:
