Nothing special...  Sharing IRQs on PCI bus is normal.

Here's what one of my machine looks like.

fxp0: <Intel Pro 10/100B/100+ Ethernet> port 0xecc0-0xecff mem 0xfe100000-0xfe1fffff,0xfe2ff000-0xfe2fffff irq 5 at device 1.0 on pci0
fxp0: Ethernet address 00:b0:d0:e1:4d:2a
inphy0: <i82555 10/100 media interface> on miibus0
inphy0:  10baseT, 10baseT-FDX, 100baseTX, 100baseTX-FDX, auto
fxp1: <Intel Pro 10/100B/100+ Ethernet> port 0xec80-0xecbf mem 0xfe000000-0xfe0fffff,0xfe2fe000-0xfe2fefff irq 10 at device 2.0 on pci0
fxp1: Ethernet address 00:b0:d0:e1:4d:2b
inphy1: <i82555 10/100 media interface> on miibus1
inphy1:  10baseT, 10baseT-FDX, 100baseTX, 100baseTX-FDX, auto

I had big problems (ie, no traffic visible to this machine) hooking up
either one of these devices to one particular hub, but switching the
hub to another manufacturer or to a switch solved the problem.

Perhaps you should try a different hub/switch on your fxp1.

RW> Just in case you were wondering, my rc.conf file is configured like this:

RW> network_interfaces="fxp0 fxp1"
RW> ifconfig_fxp0="inet 172.16.83.231 netmask 255.255.255.0"

where's the ifconfig_fxp1 line?
