OK, this is getting interesting. The same cards
work properly in the ev6/ds10 at home. This must be
some kind of really wierd problem with the ev56/164SX
vs fxp which is triggered in FBSD5, and not in FBSD4.
I have the box running with xl's for now.

But I'll schedule some time in a few weeks to test
different fxp revisions/slot arrangements.
