that got it, thanks.

for the archives, my kernel now has defined :

options         ALTQ
options         ALTQ_WFQ
options         ALTQ_CDNR
options         ALTQ_RED
options         ALTQ_HFSC
options         ALTQ_CBQ

and I ran
cd /dev && sh MAKEDEV altq

I now see this :

tbrconfig -a
no active token bucket regulator

which looks a lot healthier I think :)

Some of this would go pretty well in the manpage for
tbrconfig I think.  I'm bound to have the wrong
ALTQ_* bits defined, but can't find anything that says
what I need to do basic throttling.

thanks for your help
