That's not sufficient.  FreeBSD refuses to tweak the configuration of
the card, since (that's how i understand it) there's no way to tell
the difference between a soft configuration and a hard jumper setting,

You shouldn't have done this!  Simply boot with -c and adjust
_FreeBSD_'s idea, not the hardware.
