Hi,

i see similar problems with a re card:

re0 at pci0:4:7:0:	class=0x020000 card=0x816710ec chip=0x816710ec rev=0x10 
hdr=0x00
     vendor     = 'Realtek Semiconductor'
     device     = 'RTL8169/8110 Family Gigabit Ethernet NIC'
     class      = network
     subclass   = ethernet

After upgrading to 7.1-RELEASE (and also STABLE) the NIC doesn't seem to 
receive any frames. I can see the DHCP Requests on the DHCP Server but 
the DHCPOFFERS are never seen by the client with the re0 device.
After setting promiscious mode on the interface (i.e. by tcpdump -ni 
re0) the interface begins to work fine.

I've attached a complete dmesg output, but i think the detection works 
fine, here the short version:

re0: <RealTek 8169SC/8110SC Single-chip Gigabit Ethernet> port 
0x9c00-0x9cff mem 0xdfdff000-0xdfdff0ff irq 20 at device 7.0 on pci4
