	After updating my -CURRENT box to

 FreeBSD 7.0-CURRENT #0: Tue Mar 13 22:38:20 EST 2007 i386 

	one of the network cards was not found at boot.  Checking with
pciconf produced:

none1@pci0:11:0:  class=0x020000 card=0x00000000 chip=0x00091011 rev=0x11 hdr=0x00
    vendor     = 'Digital Equipment Corporation'
    device     = 'DecChip 21140 Fast Ethernet Adapter'
    class      = network
    subclass   = ethernet

	and loading if_de.ko by hand produced the following:

de0: <Digital 21140 Fast Ethernet> port 0xa000
-0xa07f mem 0xef800000-0xef80007f irq 14 at device 11.0 on pci0
de0: ZNYX ZX34X 21140 [10-100Mb/s] pass 1.1
de0: using obsoleted if_watchdog interface
de0: Ethernet address: 00:c0:95:f8:17:af
de0: [GIANT-LOCKED]
de0: [ITHREAD]

	The machine is running (I added the necessary line to
loader.conf), but I'd like to eliminate user error before filing a
PR.
	So: tracked down the "if_watchdog", no problem, but can't find
anything on the "[ITHREAD]" /per se/.
	And what has changed to make the card invisible?
