I see this all the time with a VPN1401 PCI card on my primary office firewall running pfsense. I don't see it at all on a WRAP box with a VPN1411 mini-PCI at a remote location running m0n0wall, but I'm not sure if that would show up in the logs.
My guess is that the driver in 6.0 is just reporting some issues with the "randomness" of the random number generator in the hifn chip... but it seems very odd that would be the problem considering freebsd doesn't take advantage of the RNG on that chip.
Do you see random lockups of your pfsense box? Today I pulled the soekris card from my main office pfsense box (a Dell PE400SC) since we would get random lockups (total hardware freeze) anywhere from 3 days to 14 days apart ever since I installed the card.
