Even more strange behaviour (I suppose something in the
autonegotiation code causes this - I have no idea why it 
has ever worked with GENERIC):

If I try to nail the rl driver to 100base TX-FDX with 
ifconfig_rl0="inet 172.20.63.49  netmask 255.255.0.0 
media 100baseTX mediaopt full-duplex", the if-state 
remains at "no carrier".

BUT: When I remove the "media 100baseTX mediaopt 
full-duplex" part from rc.conf and let autonegotiation 
make the choice, the autoselection chooses 100baseTX-FDX 
and everything works out fine!

So why does the rl driver reject to work if I don't want 
it to autoselect the media?
