I don't know except maybe a config and make depend. Here is my PCI
section and it works:

# PCI Ethernet NICs that use the common MII bus controller code.
device          miibus          # MII bus support
#device         dc              # DEC/Intel 21143 and various
workalikes
#device         rl              # RealTek 8129/8139
#device         sf              # Adaptec AIC-6915 (``Starfire'')
#device         sis             # Silicon Integrated Systems SiS
900/SiS 7016
#device         ste             # Sundance ST201 (D-Link DFE-550TX)
#device         tl              # Texas Instruments ThunderLAN
#device         vr              # VIA Rhine, Rhine II
#device         wb              # Winbond W89C840F
device          xl              # 3Com 3c90x (``Boomerang'',
``Cyclone'')
