I had this issue a while back with my Athlon-XP box
(http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-current/2004-November/042127.html).
Note that I would get instant reboots with CPUTYPE?=athlon-xp,
CPUTYPE?=p3, and CPUTYPE?=p2. However, it worked fine with
CPUTYPE?=k6-2. I think you are right to be cautious and disable
anything that uses FP registers.
