Subject: buggy bios or pnpbios problem?

I have a Sony VAIO N505VE laptop and if I enable the 'pnpbios'
device with NetBSD-current, the system resets itself while scanning
for device nodes.

The result is somewhat confusing.  Enabling the verbose mode it looks
almost as if the count of nodes returned should correspond to the
node index, but it's one too high for that.  Has anyone seen similar behavior?
