I assume you only need the re0 related output. If you need the full  
dmesg, let me know.

I get 3 link state DOWN/UP notices when DHCP client starts. It works  
for exactly 60 seconds after boot, then stops. Patch from earlier "fun  
with if_re" thread didn't help, if_re.c from -CURRENT failed to build.  
Reverting back to rev 1.95.2.36.2.2 fixes it.

Thanks,
Steve
