Hi. I have suffered the same fate. The fix I used was to obtain the latest drivers 'if_xl.c' and 'if_xlreg.h' for the xl driver. I used the new /usr/src/sys/pci/if_xl.c and if_xlreg.h as well as upping the maxusers from 50 to 200 and adding options NMBCLUSTERS=8192 I hope it works. It has been up for 28 days since the problem. There are a few of these types of message in the archives. Good luck.
