You may not have run memtest long enough. We have seen cases here where memory tests ran well for the first 24 - 30 hours before failing.

As for the dmesg(8) output, the following may appear ominous:
Code:
ioapic0: misconfigured as apic 0, remapped to apid 4
...but I see the same in the dmesg(8) on my Thinkpad (which runs OpenBSD well...). Perhaps the output from the bsd.sp or bsd.mp kernels might have indicated more, but unexpected reboots prevented this from happening.

It may be worth doing more memory testing, but memtest must run continuously without interruption. Leaving it for a day may be in order especially if the memory can be replaced.
