To follow up: it works now, with the PCI card as well as the ISA card 
that I put back!! When I boot kernel.old (the kernel built from 06/20
sources) I got the same hang as earlier. So it seems to me that 
the 06/18 change to if_ed.c has done something bad to the detection of 
some cards. (according to the mailing list archive the change is made 
for making newer Linksys 10/100 PCMCIA cards work - see
http://docs.freebsd.org/cgi/getmsg.cgi?fetch=1175465+0+archive/2000/cvs-all/20000618.cvs-all )
