No one on the freebsd-current mailing list seems to know
how to avoid the following:

May 28 16:39:59 node13 kernel: bge0: watchdog timeout -- resetting
May 28 16:39:59 node13 kernel: bge0: link state changed to DOWN
May 28 16:40:02 node13 kernel: bge0: link state changed to UP

This is causing all sorts of havoc on a cluster of FreeBSD 
systems that is used for multi-day MPI computations.  

Anyone have any insight in fixing bge0 to no timeout?
