My home system (which seems to work well and is running snv_92)
reports this driver as:

Jun 27 08:51:16 carlson pcplusmp: [ID 803547 kern.info] pcplusmp: pci8086,1079 
(e1000g) instance 1 vector 0x1b ioapic 0x2 intin 0x3 is bound to cpu 0
Jun 27 08:51:16 carlson e1000g: [ID 766679 kern.info] Intel(R) PRO/1000 Network 
Connection, Driver Ver. 5.2.8
Jun 27 08:51:18 carlson mac: [ID 435574 kern.info] NOTICE: e1000g1 link up, 100 
Mbps, half duplex

The differences here include the PCI IDs (I have 10bd and 1079, you
have 1049), the driver version (!), and the fact that I've got some
really, really old hubs.  ;-}

On the driver version number, something strange is afoot.  Looking at
the source versioning in the gate, 5.2.9 corresponds with CR 6713685,
which integrated in snv_93.  Are you sure you're running snv_91?

In any event, both the different chipset and the type of interface
could make a difference here.
