Thanks a lot, the content of this patch seems well targeted.

The problem is I'm not a system developper either, and I only had the 
iso images for installation, so I will have to find a way to apply the 
patch.

Yes, but in http://www.freebsd.org/releases/4.10R/errata.html :

"(27 May 2004) The bfe(4) driver for Broadcom BCM4401 based Fast 
Ethernet adapters has been added but the release notes did not mention 
that."

I've reported a bug on that problems :

Thanks a lot,
