--- Comment #1 from Stefan Eßer <se@FreeBSD.org> ---
The behavior is correct according to the standard!

See: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duplex_mismatch

If a device is set to a fixed speed and media setting, a connecting device
configured to perform auto-negotion may detect the speed, but must assume
half-duplex mode.

This may not be the expected behavior today, but is what the standard demands.

Either use auto-negotiation on both interfaces or set both to matching modes.
