There's actually an underscore there; the symbol name is _PRT.

The message is generally harmless; its just the ACPI code looking for some
objects to assist with PCI interrupt routing. If your machine boots and
doesn't have problems with interrupt storms then I wouldn't stress it.
If it does, then try booting without ACPI.

You need to pass -v on the loader command line since boot2 (which reads
its options from /boot.config) just hands off to loader.  You can also set
boot_verbose="YES" in /boot/loader.conf if you aren't on console and don't
have serial console set up.
