JFYI, when I tried 8-STABLE as of May 15 the periodic hang-ups
disappeared. The chip ids are 0x109a8086 and 0x108c8086 (pciconf
reported them as 82573L and 82573E, added to PCI slots on the box).
The hang-ups were able to be reproduced on 8.0-RELEASE.
I didn't tried other boxes which had another symptom (abnormal long
interval between each packet), but I will give it a try and report
it, too I have no idea of what was the cause because there were a lot
of changes since the release, though.
