tcpdump and no carrier

Hello,
Everytime I run tcpdump on a re interface ifconfig shows it as being
no carrier. When I stop tcpdump the interface comes back again (on
6.0-beta5).
I've seen a similar behaviour with 'ifconfig alias' and a em card.
Everytime I added a IP the kernel would warn me that the interface was
down then up (that was on 5.4-stable).
I found it a bit curious..
