It stand for Page Attribute Table, according to an email posted on Nvidias FreeBSD forums the guy who's porting PAT said "Well, I have the PAT stuff ported over to amd64 now and running and sent
a patch to my nvidia contact earlier this week for testing. I am hopeful
that there will be an nvidia driver for amd64 by the time 7.0 is released." This was March of this year.

The kernel is lacking some features that are needed by Nvidia hardware, mainly PAT. Which is being ported but probably won't be ready until 7.0.
