I plan on updating our ACPI-CA to the 20031202 dist after the code freeze
is over.  It has some important fixes, including this one:

---
Changed the initialization of Operation Regions during subsystem init to
perform two entire walks of the ACPI namespace; The first to initialize
the regions themselves, the second to execute the _REG methods.  This
fixed some interdependencies across _REG methods found on some machines.
---

You might be able to work around this problem by setting:
  debug.acpi.disable="ec"
or
  debug.acpi.avoid="\_SB_.PCI0.SBRG"
