Well, for what it's worth I hit something vaguely similar on
my Ultra-10, when I tried to upgrade it to an 11/11 snapshot
of current.  In fact, I first hit the problem on a previous
upgrade attempt (maybe a week or two earlier), but at that
time I simply rebooted into an earlier kernel and temporarily
forgot about the whole thing.

In my case, the bootup process would get to:

atapci0: <CMD 646 WDMA2 controller> port
0xc00020-0xc0002f,0xc00018-0xc0001b,0xc
00010-0xc00017,0xc00008-0xc0000b,0xc00000-0xc00007 at device 3.0 on pci1
atapci0: [MPSAFE]
ata2: at 0xc00000 on atapci0
ata2: [MPSAFE]
ata3: at 0xc00010 on atapci0
ata3: [MPSAFE]
pcib2: <APB PCI-PCI bridge> at device 1.0 on pci0
pci2: <OFW PCI bus> on pcib2

and then completely freeze up.  the only thing I can do is
power-off and power-on again.

I haven't said anything, because in my case I happen to
comment out the 'options SMP' clause in the kernel, and
those '[MPSAFE]' lines got me thinking that maybe this
system-hang was my own fault.  My problem may very well be
different than yours, given that I seem to be hanging at a
different spot.

Also note that this Ultra-10 has a relatively old disk, which
might explain all those complaints from SETFEATURES.

Unfortunately, I then mistakenly blew away my working kernel,
so right now I can't boot up the machine at all.  So I will
also be reinstalling from 5.1-RELEASE and seeing what I can
figure out from there...
