Thanks for this.  I was able to boot and verify that pci/mpr is already
loaded, and trying "kldload mpr" reports that it's already loaded from the
kernel.  So, device just not recognized.

Yeah.  I think I see what PCI id is missing in the driver, after digging
around in the sources.  I was just hoping it was a process/human error.
I'll get another machine running a build, and see if I can stub it in.

Thanks all.
