Did you try a cross-over cable?  Actually, you shouldn't even need a 
cross-over cable for gigabit devices, they should auto-select MDI vs. MDIX.

Also, I recall reading something about problems with onboard tx cksum errors 
on em devices recently; you may want to turn off the tx cksum feature in 
your testing.  Or search the archives for txcsum or something like that.
