You are specifying the media incorrectly.  Read the de(4) man
page.  You want to say:
	ifconfig de0 media 100baseTX mediaopt full-duplex

See if that helps.  

In my case (*BSD/alpha, Digital Personal Workstation 500au), the
driver recognizes the options, but doesn't know enough about the
hardware to actually throw it into full-duplex mode.
