Anton,

Can you install the port with the following patch applied.
This gives much better statistics. The vendor will be
either "Itanium" or "Itanium 2" and the actual CPU type
will be "Merced", "McKinley", "Montecito", etc..

See also:
	http://bsdstats.org/bt/cpus.html?os=FreeBSD

And look for CPU type "Itanium 2".

FYI,
