mmm, then it may be caused by reading the GMII register while there is
no carrier (but it is quite strange why this does not happen on 1.4
branch).
Try following test:
After you have brought re0 up (e.g. by configuring its ip address),
run `ifconfig re0 down` and unplug the cable, see whether the problem
still exists.

BTW, please post the output of `dmesg`
