I would expect it to fail in blocks, and if it were out of spare blocks, almost everything would be acting strange. I can probably test for this by comparing files in /usr/obj and /usr. - Can you try a "known good" FreeBSD 8 configuration? I.e. from a Live > CD or USB media?

I did try the vr0 interface, too (but not exclusively; I left the vge interface up), and it had the same problems. Since these things are usually wired directly to the Southbridge, a problem in the Southbridge driver would show up with any PCI(E) device.
