That did it! Hoo-ya!

I figured my machine was messed up. I thought I was going to have to update
the driver. Realtek has a newer version on their website, but it is for
FreeBSD and is not a drop-in replacement (it fails 'make depend').

Syntax error, words in wrong order are.  I bet you got this:

$ ifconfig media 10BaseT rtk0
ifconfig: SIOCGIFFLAGS media: Device not configured

It's not obvious, but that means the "media" device is not configured.  Of
course, there is no "media" device (which is sort-of what "not configured"
means).  You don't want to "ifconfig media"; you want to "ifconfig rtk0". 
Try:

$ ifconfig rtk0 media 10BaseT

HTH.
