Thanks for the reference!  From reading that, it seems as though
the sysctl-exposed functionality matches the dmesg.boot
description (speed controls only available on cpu 0):

dev.cpu.0.%desc: ACPI CPU
dev.cpu.0.%driver: cpu
dev.cpu.0.%location: handle=\_PR_.CPU0
dev.cpu.0.%pnpinfo: _HID=none _UID=0
dev.cpu.0.%parent: acpi0
dev.cpu.0.freq: 2933
dev.cpu.0.freq_levels: 2933/90000 2799/83000 2666/77000 2533/71000 2399/65000

dev.cpu.1.%desc: ACPI CPU

Since the cpufreq man page lists the inability to set the
frequency of different CPUs differently, perhaps this isn't a
bug at all?
