Yeah, but me being who I am, I keep running this new code and with a 
variety of devctl and kld(un)load invocations, I can usually restore 
network. When it works, it's fantastic for a Mbps-starved FreeBSDizen. 
When it doesn't, it's an opportunity. So ..

I've managed to resucitate networking after several suspend/resume and 
firmware crash (not correlated) cycles, but each time the steps I have 
to take are somewhat different, so I don't have any additional useful 
info, sorry.
