an additional datum.
  o with hw.bge.allow_asf untouched, i.e. default
  o with /boot/device.hints having hint.bge.0.disabled=1
  o with /etc/rc.conf having
      ifconfig_bge0="198.180.150.1/25 media 1000baseTX"
      ifconfig_bge0_alias0="inet 198.180.150.2/32"
      etc
  o it boots but bge0 carrier is down and can not be brought up

comment out the bge0 entries in /etc/rc.conf, and it boots, carrier is
up, and can be hand configured with the address assignments, and works.
