FreeBSD doesn't recognize onboard RTL8139

I'm setting up FreeBSD on a little single-board computer with a built-in 
Realtek 8139 Ethernet controller. The board has a PCI slot, into which 
I've put a PCI card with another Realtek 8139. However, while FreeBSD 
recognizes the add-on card, it doesn't recognize the onboard chip.

Here's a dmesg. I suspect that the line

pci0: <unknown card> (vendor=0x1078, dev=0x0103) at 18.3

indicates that the onboard NIC was detected but not recognized. How do I 
fix this?
