If you haven't already, and perhaps even if you have, send a report of this to 
stable at FreeBSD.org.  Normally, the debugging instructions at that point will 
be to build a kernel with the debugger and various debugging features, and see 
if a more useful failure made can be found (i.e., drop to the debugger / break 
to the debugger rather than hang), which will help track it down to something 
more specific.  Ideally a bug in FreeBSD and not in the driver, from your 
perspective, because getting FreeBSD fixed is probably easier :-).
