firewire not probing?

I did some googling on these symtptoms, but couldn't find a good hit.

Under FreeBSD 5.3-RELEASE, I have a firewire card, that the kernel
finds, then ignores.

    fwohci0: <Texas Instruments TSB82AA2> irq 9 at device 0.0 on pci2
    fwohci0: OHCI version 1.10 (ROM=1)
    fwohci0: No. of Isochronous channels is 4.
    fwohci0: EUI64 08:00:28:64:10:00:12:eb
    fwohci0: invalid speed 7 (fixed to 3).
    fwohci0: Phy 1394a available S800, 3 ports.
    fwohci0: Link S800, max_rec 4096 bytes.
    firewire0: <IEEE1394(FireWire) bus> on fwohci0
    fwe0: <Ethernet over FireWire> on firewire0
    if_fwe0: Fake Ethernet address: 0a:00:28:00:12:eb
    fwe0: Ethernet address: 0a:00:28:00:12:eb
    fwe0: if_start running deferred for Giant
    sbp0: <SBP-2/SCSI over FireWire> on firewire0
    fwohci0: Initiate bus reset
    fwohci0: node_id=0xc800ffc0, gen=1, CYCLEMASTER mode
    fwohci0: SID Error
    fwohci0: unrecoverable error
    fwohci0: phy int

But, ifconfig doesn't reveal fwe0, pciconf doesn't reveal the card,
and plugging in a firewire device doesn't plumb a SCSI device.

I can't infer from the dmesg output what, per se, is wrong.  None
of those trailing diagnostic messages are, unto themselves, a
showstopper.

Does anyone have a suggestion as to how I can move forward on this?
I can make available a full dmesg, if that woudl help anyone...
