bge0 does not work anymore

          I am using FreeBSD 9.0-CURRENT (amd64) on a DELL Latitude D630. With 
     todays kernel the driver 'bge0' does not work anymore. With kernel from 
     October 9th it does.
     
     The network controller is a Broadcom NetXtreme Gigabit Ethernet, ASIC 
     rev. 0x00a002; CHIP ID 0x0000a0002; ASIC REV 0x0a; CHIP REV 0xa0; PCI-E.
     
     The entry in /etc/rc.conf is 'ifconfig_bge0="DHCP".
     
     Does anyone else observe this behaviour? Is there something I can try?
     
     Thanks in advance,
     Rainer Hurling
