Whilst you need an IP address for a jail, you don't need to dedicate
an interface to a jail.  Typically, you would create a number of
aliases on one interface and assign them to jails.  If you have lots
of public addresses then you could use aliases on your public NIC.
Alternatively, you can create aliases on lo0 and use firewall software
(ipfw, IPfilter or pf) to redirect packets to the appropriate alias.

If you really need distinct physical interfaces, you could use an
IEEE 802.1Q VLAN trunk into your FreeBSD box and break it out into
as many vlan interfaces as you want.
