Has anybody made this work?

I just installed a FreeBSD 4.5R router yesterday, and wanted to play with
the polling stuff.  A nice 16-port router with 4 x DFE 570 cards in it...

The fxp file didn't patch cleanly, but I don't use fxp, and it looked like
I could safely just move the original file back in place.

I compiled, installed, rebooted.  Upon setting kern.polling.enable to 1,
the system went net-deaf, with a bunch of

dc0: watchdog timeout
dc4: watchdog timeout
dc5: watchdog timeout

every few seconds.

I did it when the system was under load (~100 mbits) but it happens when
the system isn't, too.

Am I doing something stupid?

Any suggestions appreciated.
