OK. Ignored :)

All I did during the previously posted dmesg sequence was to power on 
the PI and then finally unplug the USB NIC.

I didn't try to debug afterwards but I did conclude the hardware acts 
unpredictable when not enough current is supplied. I had some similar 
experiences with another ARM board and when I upgraded the PSU all 
issues vanished.

Besides, the NetBSD image from Jun Ebihara works perfectly.
