Thanks for PXE related clue. But I've confused with ifconfig/dhclient
command.  When did you run those commands?
bge(4) does not report current link speed if the interface
is not UP.  So if you can see established link it means you
initialized/upped the controller.
By upping interface bge(4) will initialize the controller which in turn
will touch many registers.  The same is true for dhclient(8).  The first
thing dhclint(8) does is UP the interface.

In order not to touch bge(4) H/W in bge_init(), you should not have any
'ifconfig_bge0=xxxx' line in rc.conf.  What I'd like to know is whether
IPMI is broken by bge_attach() call. Could you check it?
