I can confirm seeing it here also, you are not alone:

$ netstat -i
Name    Mtu Network       Address              Ipkts Ierrs Idrop    Opkts Oerrs  Coll
re0    1500 <Link#1>      00:16:3e:08:b4:c7 21150230     0     0  4101045     0 4019323
[..]

I had not noticed it before. I am not encountering any packet loss
or other networking problems. No idea about the reason.

This is on FreeBSD 8.1-RELEASE-p2 amd64 with GENERIC kernel.
