Does the "rl" driver recognize the chip?  What does
"boot -v" show?

Here is what I get on my box (lines wrapped for readability):

 rl0: <RealTek 8139 10/100BaseTX> port 0xd400-0xd4ff mem \
    0xf7000000-0xf70000ff irq 5 at device 16.0 on pci0
 miibus0: <MII bus> on rl0
 rlphy0: <RealTek internal media interface> on miibus0
 rlphy0:  10baseT, 10baseT-FDX, 100baseTX, 100baseTX-FDX, auto
 rl0: Ethernet address: xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx
