Matthew, I added the line, but it made no difference. I am new to FreeBSD and it's tools, but looking at the output of dmesg (booting with debug) and pciconf, I think that there may be an irq conflict. There appears to be a 4-function device at pci0, slot 7 -- an ISA bridge, an IDE controller, a USB interface and a Power Management controller. The USB interface shows up before the 3Com card in dmesg output and both seem to want irq 11. I do not need the USB, so conceptually I could either disable it or point one of the two devices to another irq. If either solution were possible and I knew how...
