>Description:
rl driver loaded as module when it already compiled in kernel 
panics system when issued first ifconfig rl0 command,
ifconfig -l shows list of interfaces
rl driver successful recognized by kernel while booting
I don't know affected or not other NIC modules or other modules
by this problem, but it seems kernel must complin about not
uniq instance of driver in memory
>How-To-Repeat:
RealTek 8139 NIC in PCI slot
in kernel config:
...
device          miibus
device          rl              # RealTek 8129/8139
...
in /boot/loader.conf
...
if_rl_load="YES"                 # RealTek 8129/8139
...
after boot and issue ifconfig rl0
-> system panics
>Fix:
don't load modeule or not compile in kernel rl driver
