brand new to the list, brand new to current.  The choice to upgrade was simply that with my current hardware, this is the more stable.  

I am running on an asus crosshair motherboard which works great.  The network adapter's are both detected via nfe.  It is plaiged with watchdog timeouts but I did verify while doing dhcp requests that some data actually made it through,  my router  showed a request was made from this computer however it didn't actually manage to get a lease.

e1000phy1: <Marvell 88E1116 Gigabit PHY> PHY 1 on miibus2
nfe0: <NVIDIA nForce MCP55 Networking Adapter> port 0xb000-0xb007 mem 0xfe02a000-0xfe02afff,0xfe029000-0xfe0290ff,0xfe028000-0xfe02800f irq 11 at device 16.0 on pci0
miibus1: <MII bus> on nfe0
nfe0: using obsoleted if_watchdog interface
nfe0: Ethernet address: xxcensorxx
nfe1: <NVIDIA nForce MCP55 Networking Adapter> port 0xac00-0xac07 mem 0xfe027000-0xfe027fff,0xfe026000-0xfe0260ff,0xfe025000-0xfe02500f irq 7 at device 17.0 on pci0
miibus2: <MII bus> on nfe1
nfe1: using obsoleted if_watchdog interface
nfe1: Ethernet address: xxcensorxx


because of this I threw in a 3com 3c905C card which only works with the -current branch with my setup.  the rest(6.1,6.2) had kernel page faults on amd64. There were no issues with xl0 3c905c while on the i386 kernel and they only started when I switched to amd64, and stopped when I got to 7-current(amd64).  

I am having a hell of a lot of ports errors while compiling, however I can pkg_add -r the same packages which tells me other people have no such issues.   I get a lot of this error:

/libexec/ld-elf.so.1: /lib/libpthread.so.2: Undefined symbol "_malloc_prefork"

other than that, compared I've run successfully after getting binaries because ports failed for various reasons(mostly lib related errors) mozilla, windowmaker, enlightenment, licq, xorg, firefox
