I think I can solve you problem for you. At least this works on my dual=20
processor Supermicro:

Enable=20

options         MPBIOS          # configure CPUs and APICs using MPBIOS

in addition to=20

options         MPACPI          # configure CPUs and APICs using ACPI
                                # (acpi at mainbus must also be enabled)
options         MPACPI_SCANPCI  # find PCI roots using MPACPI

Both can be used together.
