Further, since the switch is manageable, it has some ability to report port status. Odds-on that there is a disagreement on FULL/HALF-DUPLEX between the switch and the network card.

The OpenBSD version is nearly two years old. Update to recent software, and see if the problem still exists. Nobody wants to spend time diagnosing a fault which may have been fixed long ago... 2. You provide no information about the hardware. If the problem still exists after upgrading, send a complete dmesg, output of 'ifconfig -a', output of 'netstat -in' after the box has carried some traffic, and information about what media type the switch is using for the port (full/half-duplex etc).
