ie(4) v.s. dhcpd(8) & tcpdump(8)

I checked the list archives and didn't see anything obvious related to
this.

When I run tcpdump(8) on the ie(4) on my 712/60 running the -current
snapshot from last month, i see absolutely no traffic printed to stdout.

shackled# tcpdump -i ie0 -n
tcpdump: listening on ie0

# ifconfig ie0
ie0: flags=8963<UP,BROADCAST,NOTRAILERS,RUNNING,PROMISC,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST>
mtu 1500
        address: 08:00:09:5a:11:1e
        media: Ethernet 10base2
        inet 192.168.1.1 netmask 0xfffffff0 broadcast 192.168.1.15
        inet6 fe80::a00:9ff:fe5a:111e%ie0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x1
        inet 162.33.85.74 netmask 0xffffffc0 broadcast 162.33.85.127

The "PROMISC" flag is definately getting set, I'm just not seeing packets.
I tried using an AUI adapter on the 15 pin 10base5 port exclusively, the
UTP port exclusively, and a combination of both.

Here's the dmesg(8) output:

ie0 at gsc0 offset 7000 irq 8: LASI/i82596CA v1.0, address
08:00:09:5a:11:1e

Also, probably related in some way, dhcpd(8) wont' run.  netstat(1) shows
it listening, but no queries come through when i run it w/ the -d flag.
and of course, w/o a working tcpdump(8), it's kind of hard to debug the
problem.

Also, ifconfig(8) -m on ie0 shows 10base2 ?! as the only available media.
That can't be right.  I'd try a more recent -current if i had a good
cross-compile platform.

Any insight?
