Got the docs now, yes it has its own PHY.

I will add some stuff to the driver over the weekend.

Connected to GigE switch:

re0: flags=9843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,LINK0,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
        options=18<VLAN_MTU,VLAN_HWTAGGING>

        media: Ethernet autoselect (100baseTX <full-duplex>)
        status: active
So it appears that this 8169S still needs some driver modification as it does not know about GigE physical interface. 
This is from LevelOne add-on PCI card.
