Really, honestly, and truly, I swear you don't need device dc for this.  From 
LINT:

# PCI Ethernet NICs that use the common MII bus controller code.
device          dc              # DEC/Intel 21143 and various workalikes

This has _nothing_ to do with APM.

Enabling apm in the kernel and turning on the two nobs in rc.conf should be 
it.  If that doesn't work, then either your computer doesn't really have APM 
or FreeBSD doesn't support its implementation.
