I looked at the dmesg more closely. It turns out that the other le is
the entry in /boot/device.hints for the isa version of le. Commenting
it out and then le0 is back.

So there are some procedures reordered? Old version initialized
detected le on PCI first , then le0 in device.hints will be skipped
due to conflict. New kernel loads and initializes device hints first
so the detected one goes second as le1.
