PGP on FreeBSD 4.x Requires apm in Kernel

If you use PGP 5.x, 6.x or 6.5x with FreeBSD and have removed the apm device from the kernel, PGP will dump core with a floating point exception. Keep this line in your kernel:

device                apm0    at nexus? disable flags 0x20 # Advanced Power Management

No idea why or how this affects PGP.

If you know of any problems this causes, I'd like to know.
