>Description:
I just synced with today's -CURRENT, and rendered by port build machine
useless.  With minimal network traffic (just logging in via SSH with a
TCP NFS-mounted home) I get an immediate watchdog timeout on em0, and
they just keep coming as I type in the session.  The machine is
otherwise idle while this is occurring.

Verbose dmesg : http://www.marcuscom.com/downloads/fugu_dmesg.txt
Kernel config : http://www.marcuscom.com/downloads/fugu_kernel.txt

Disabling MSI via hw.pci.enable_msi="0" resolves the problem.  Note:
keeping MSI-X enabled does not trigger the problem.  However, enabling
MSI and disabling MSI-X also triggers the problem.
>How-To-Repeat:
>Fix:
Adding hw.pci.enable_msi="0" to /boot/loader.conf works around the
problem.
