>Description:
After upgrading a x86_64 machine with igb interfaces from 9.2-RELEASE to 10.0-RELEASE the OS boots, but networking remains offline. ifconfig by hand on the console gives

# ifconfig igb0 10.1.2.3
ifconfig: ioctl (SIOCAIFADDR): Invalid argument

The same problem has apparently been observed in Debian GNU/kFreeBSD
