I also got those messages and following a suggestion I found either on this mailing list archive or a newsgroup I added this line to my kernel config file... options NETGRAPH_ETHER ... and it fixed the messages coming up but I suspect it's a bit of a sledge-hammer solution. Of course I have these options too (I don't comment any of them out)... options NETGRAPH options NETGRAPH_PPPOE options NETGRAPH_SOCKET I'm sure the messages you're getting can be ignore but if they bother you (as they did me) try adding just the NETGRAPH_ETHER option to your kernel config. If that doesn't solve it you can then try uncommenting the other two Netgraph options and you should see success. BTW - I am using 4.1.1-RELEASE.
