Did so also, since I wasn't sure if it gets an "include loop" I 
only used a trimmed down /etc/defaults/pccard.conf

I added configuration in rc.conf, that make sure, that pccardd
will only go into daemon mode after finding a card by using the
-z option. If I don't do that, freebsd boots up so fast, that ifconfig
command doesn't find a driver for ifconfig command

pccard_beep="1"         # pccard beep type.
pccard_enable="YES"     # Set to YES if you want to configure PCCARD devices.
pccardd_flags="-z"      # Additional flags for pccardd.
#pccard_conf="/etc/pccard.conf"

ifconfig_xe0="inet 172.16.2.4 netmask 255.255.255.0 media 10baseT/UTP"

Ans as you can see, the interface status is up and running.

xe0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
        inet 172.16.2.4 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 172.16.2.255

        media: 10baseT/UTP
        supported media: autoselect 10baseT/UTP 100baseTX

But actually I can't ping...
I get interface resets, but nothing happens.

The interface already is up.
I tried that but no result and after a ping I get

xe0: watchdog timeout; resetting card
xe0: stop
xe0: disable_intr
xe0: hard_reset
xe0: setmedia
xe0: disable_intr
xe0: soft_reset
xe0: silicon revision = 5

xe0: enable_intr
xe0: init
xe0: enable_intr

BTW, the device is connected to a Cisco 2516 with builtin 10 Mbit Hub
half-duplex.
