 I have the same problem here with a Gateway E4500 desktop running 
 -current from May 5.  The machine only boots NetBSD; I do not have any 
 other OSes installed.  Here's what I see:
 
 bge0 at pci2 dev 0 function 0: Broadcom BCM5752 Gigabit Ethernet
 bge0: interrupting at ioapic0 pin 16 (irq 11)
 bge0: firmware handshake timed out, val = 0
 bge0: RX CPU self-diagnostics failed!
 bge0: chip initialization failed
 
 I would be happy to provide more info or test patches.
