This has been happening to me on a -current system from about 3 weeks ago.
The card is a PCI based Kingston EtherRx, and the message appears only on
bootup.
de0 <Digital 21041 Ethernet> rev 17 int a irq 11 on pci0:19:0
de0: 21041 [10Mb/s] pass 1.1
de0: address 00:c0:f0:15:e8:ed
[...]
de0: enabling 10baseT port
de0: abnormal interrupt: receive process stopped
Other than this message I have had no problems with the card/driver EXCEPT
that when the cable is disconnected from the hub or card, the interface is
no longer accessible... The system complains about a cable fault and then
boom, no more packets. I didn't have a chance to check into this further.
(ie: would ifconfig down then ifconfig up fix it)
