Ugh, sorry about that, I meant the ohci0 device.  For example:

irq16: fxp0 ohci0                6378447          2

You'll see I'm sharing the ochi0 instance with fxp0, of which I'm fairly
certain is why USB anything is pretty much broken for me in -current. 
Although I can change the USB controller interrupt in the bios setup, it
never takes on bootup.
