I dunno, but I hear a reliable rumour that the bcm5780s are very
likely integrated inside a Broadcom/Serverworks HT-2000.  (Though the
1000base-SX looks ... odd).

Given that it's a blade, where space is tight, I'd guess it
highly-integrated [sic] "southbridge", maybe an HT-1000.  What's a
Serverworks K2? Does your driver for the Severworks K2 support the
(sic) SATA-II ports on the HT-1000, or is it something completely
different?

(And can we get these pulled up to NetBSD-3 once they're known to be
stable and reliable?)
