The driver was broken a while back and I'm right in the middle of trying
to fix it. I've actually given up on the FreeBSD driver and ported the
NetBSD driver with mixed success. I've got 3c503 boards working great but
the EE16s are really nasty and I'm still tracking down a few issues.
You might try the attached patch against sys/dev/ie/if_ie.c though as I'm
not quite ready to commit what I've got.
