>Description:
I have a RealTek 8101E ethernet card, which is supposed to work under FreeBSD using re driver.

The ethernet card is recognised during boot, here is the output of `dmesg | grep re0` :

re0: <RealTek 8101E/8102E/8102EL/8103E PCIe 10/100baseTX> ...
re0: Using 1 MSI messages
re0: Chip rev. 0x24000000
re0: MAC rev. 0x00000000
re0: Unknown H/W revision rev. 0x24000000
device_attach: re0 attach returned 6

But when I do `ifconfig -a`, only lo0 is printed.
>How-To-Repeat:
 - Install FreeBSD 8.1, 8.2RC3 or 9-CURRENT
 - ifconfig -a
