Actually, after poking around further, all I find are docs that say
there has been full support for the NetXTreme since 4.4 - so it
looks as if my question is evolving into "why isn't it working for
me?"

The problem I'm experiencing is fbsd simply not probing the device.
Nothing under dmesg, bge support is definitly in the kernel.  Is
there a trick somewhere that I'm not gleaning, or some sort of bios
level knob to turn?  (If so, I can't find it.)

This box was running a different OS previously, and was successfully
on the network, so it's assumed that the hardware is functional.
