I had a similar problem on a Tyan motherboard where "ifconfig bge0" 
would cause the kernel to drop into DDB, while "ifconfig bge1" worked 
just fine.  I worked around the problem by marking the PCI IRQ used by 
bge0 as "not available" in the BIOS, which forced bge0 to use a 
different PCI IRQ, and I've been using my machine quite happily ever 
since.  It's not a fix, but it things working.
