State-Changed-Why: 
Hello, I dont feel this is a PR but a general question. when you have a
if_re(4) device (re0 in your ifconfig) that shows that at least the
machine recognized the device. Perhaps you can test this with a cross
cable directly to another machine or something like that. No carrier
mostly means that it didn't detect the link, or that you didn't plug
anything in. Could you please discuss this on the mailinglist
(net at FreeBSD.org) first please and get back to me in case this is worth
a PR? (http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-net for more
information about the mailinglist). Thanks!
