Perhaps if you can provide patches against the 8.0-REL msk(1) to make it =
extremely verbose, I could provide the output and we might learn more =
about the cause of this issue.  The fact that it's so easily reproduced =
must play in favor.

I'm afraid I simply have not got the time and resources to learn about =
both the FreeBSD kernel + module writing and network interface driver =
operations.  The only alternative would be to wait until somebody that =
does happens upon this hardware.=
