FreeBSD does - just decide for a supported card and build a custom kernel. 
I use for example a 3Com 3C905 card on fast ethernet w/ 2.2.1-R.

Ok, I had to select 100 MBit/s manually per DOS floppy boot and 3Com DOS
utitlity floppy. But as far as I know 10/100BaseT ist automatically
recognized by the de0 driver for DEC21140 based cards.
