yep, deviceid 0x4362 instead of 0x4361 for the regular 88E8050.

ach, I missed the statement where it sets sk->sk_type.

I have tried installing if_sk.c 1.83.2.6 and have put in a variant of
the patch above (with the sk->sk_type line included).  It now fails
with:

 > skc0: <Marvell Yukon 88E8053 Gigabit Ethernet> port 0xc800-0xc8ff mem 0xdfefc000-0xdfefffff irq 16 at device 0.0 on pci3
 > skc0: bad VPD resource id: expected 82 got 0
 > sk0: <Marvell Semiconductor, Inc. Yukon> on skc0
 > sk0: no memory for jumbo buffers!
 > sk0: jumbo buffer allocation failed
 > device_attach: sk0 attach returned 12
 > sk1: <Marvell Semiconductor, Inc. Yukon> on skc0
 > sk1: no memory for jumbo buffers!
 > sk1: jumbo buffer allocation failed
 > device_attach: sk1 attach returned 12

That "at device 0.0" looks suboptimal.
