Don't know how many different drivers will run the DFE-530TX+  but I
use the miibus device with the rl device (see below):

# PCI Ethernet NICs that use the common MII bus controller code.
# NOTE: Be sure to keep the 'device miibus' line in order to use these NICs!
device		miibus		# MII bus support
#device		dc		# DEC/Intel 21143 and various workalikes
#device		pcn		# AMD Am79C79x PCI 10/100 NICs
device		rl		# RealTek 8129/8139
#device		sf		# Adaptec AIC-6915 (``Starfire'')
#device		sis		# Silicon Integrated Systems SiS 900/SiS 7016
#device		ste		# Sundance ST201 (D-Link DFE-550TX)
#device		tl		# Texas Instruments ThunderLAN
#device		vr		# VIA Rhine, Rhine II

Do you have the miibus enabled? Compiled?

My dmesg:

rl0: <RealTek 8139 10/100BaseTX> port 0xd400-0xd4ff mem 0xda000000-0xda0000ff irq 9 at device 11.0 on pci0
rl0: Ethernet address: 00:50:ba:8a:c1:9d
miibus0: <MII bus> on rl0
rlphy0: <RealTek internal media interface> on miibus0
