Hi,
	It is for me with the same NIC actually.  Do you have your NIC
in a 4X or 16X slot ?

em0 at pci4:0:0:   class=0x020000 card=0x115e8086 chip=0x105e8086

    vendor   = 'Intel Corporation'
    device   = 'PRO/1000 PT'
    class    = network
    subclass = ethernet
em1 at pci4:0:1:   class=0x020000 card=0x115e8086 chip=0x105e8086

    device   = 'PRO/1000 PT'
    class    = network
    subclass = ethernet

Right now its running a kernel from the 11th, but I was briefly using
it from the 16th with MSI support and it was fine as well.  

Do you have them on xover cables or a switch ?
