I think my modem card has died.  I reverted back to a backup of a
kernel that I know used to work and it now hangs during boot.  I even
tried reverting /boot/loader and friends on the offchance they were
upsetting something.

I'll see if I can find another DF5660 at work to double check, but
at this stage, I'd say it's a hardware fault rather than a bug in
FreeBSD.

Apologies for the false alarm.
