Device bge watchdog timeouts

We just repurposed a Dell 2550 from a 4.9-STABLE backup server (very
intensive network load) to a 5.2-CURRENT shoutcast/realserver (minimal
network load) and are seeing watchdog timeout errors constantly. We
experience no such trouble in it's -STABLE incarnation (using the -STABLE bge
driver). We have temporarily given up on the bge driver in -CURRENT and are
using the other 100base (fxp) onboard nic. Has anyone got any suggestions on
how to get this machine running smoothly using its gig interface (with
-CURRENT) ? Thanks in advance.
