Well, the box was running snv_55b when I made the initial tests, but I have now live-upgraded it to snv_77 and bfu'ed opensolaris 2007-12-18 bits on top of snv_77 before I made that dhcp test. Did you still have the "rge" driver bound to the "pci10de,54c" device before you used the update_drv command to rebind the device from "rge" -> "nge"? But there is an known / open bug in this area: deleting a driver binding and installing a new driver binding for the same device identification requires a reboot!
