Yes it does, thanks!

On boot, trherer is a noticable delay (tens of seconds) after printing
these lines:
re0: <RealTek 8168/8168B/8168C/8168CP/8111B/8111C/8111CP PCIe Gigabit Ethernet> port 0xee00-0xeeff mem 0xfdfff000-0xfdffffff irq 19 at device 0.0 on pci2
re0: turning off MSI enable bit.
re0: Chip rev. 0x38000000
re0: MAC rev. 0x00000000

The original didn't have that delay.
Otrher than that it works much better. Details:
root at kg-vm# uname -a
FreeBSD kg-vm.kg4.no 6.4-PRERELEASE FreeBSD 6.4-PRERELEASE #3: Sun Nov  2 10:44:32 CET 2008     root at kg-vm.kg4.no:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/SMP  amd64
root at kg-vm# pciconf -lv | grep re0 -A 4
re0 at pci2:0:0:	class=0x020000 card=0x81aa1043 chip=0x816810ec rev=0x01 hdr=0x00
    vendor     = 'Realtek Semiconductor'
    device     = 'RTL8168/8111 PCI-E Gigabit Ethernet NIC'
    class      = network
    subclass   = ethernet

Note: I haven't testet if_rl, so I don't know how this patch affects that.
I'll get back with a note on stability sometime next week (after I have done losts of data transfers to and from this box).
