The Linux tg3 driver claims this is a BCM5764.  Can you try this patch and 
include any messages (especially any phy messages) from a verbose boot?  
Alternatively, you could boot w/o bge in the kernel, turn on bootverbose 
(debug.bootverbose sysctl) and kldload a patched bge.ko and capture the dmesg 
output.

No idea on this one.  You could ask Sam perhaps.
