If they really annoy you, I guess you could take out line 3419 of
/usr/src/sys/pci/if_de.c:

3419d3418
<			error = "bad crc";

and recompile the kernel.

That way you won't get your console completely flooded if you've a lot
of machines talking to your FreeBSD box ;)

This wouldn't survive a system upgrade, of course... is there any chance
of adding an kernel option to suppress some/all of these error messages
on the 'de' interface?
