 The problem was fixed by installing nfe driver to replace nve, supplied at
 http://www.f.csce.kyushu-u.ac.jp/~shigeaki/software/nfe-20071124.tar.gz and described on
 http://www.f.csce.kyushu-u.ac.jp/~shigeaki/software/freebsd-nfe.html
 
 1. The nve had to be removed from the kernel config and kernel recompiled.
 
 2. put files from nfe-20071124.tar.gz to /usr/src/sys/dev/nfe
 
 Then 
 
  cd /usr/src/sys/dev/nfe 
  make 
  make install
 
 3. Add line
 
 if_nfe_load="YES" 
 
 to /boot/loader.conf
  
 4. Reboot.
 
 
 This was all tested on 6.3-RELEASE.
