Turned out dlmgmtd(1M) was stuck and had to be restarted:

# svcadm restart datalink-management

# dladm show-ether
LINK            PTYPE    STATE    AUTO  SPEED-DUPLEX
PAUSE
e1000g0         current  up       yes   1G-f                            bi
e1000g1         current  up       yes   1G-f                            bi
e1000g2         current  up       yes   1G-f                            bi
e1000g3         current  up       yes   1G-f                            bi

I'm still trying to understand what causes it. Perhaps dladm should have
better error reporting in case it doesn't get a satisfactory answer from
/dev/dld.
