I just managed to get the link working:

As I wrote in my initial post to this forum, I only deactivated 
auto-negotiation and 100MBit half-duplex. If I understand the dladm man page 
correctly, the underlying driver switches to the maximum allowed / available 
speed when auto negotiation is turned off; in my case a GBit connection which 
won't work because of the switch's capabilities, i.e. fast ethernet full duplex.

After deactivating both GBit capabilities, 100MBit half duplex and 
auto-negotiation both links now talk with 100MBit full duplex to the switch. 
Hooray!

So it wasn't not a bug, but basically a user error... :-o


Anyway, thanks for the hints.
