I have a blog post at
http://blog.hostileadmin.com/2012/06/14/freebsd-on-hp-proliant-dl360p-g8-servers/
which touches on this.  I heard as recently as today that the fixes
for the BCM5719 and 5720 were recently committed to -CURRENT.  It's
too late for them to be rolled into 9.1.  Not sure if they'll be
committed to to stable/8 or not, but if so they could make it into
8.4-R.
