Max IPv4 Addresses

I seem to have an issue with adding more than 241 IPv4 addresses on a single interface, anything over that and the network just won't come up. Is there a hard-coded limit or a sysctl that controls the maximum amount of IP addresses?

FreeBSD 8.0-RELEASE-p1 amd64, nfe driver.
 
Not sure if there's a limit but why do you want to add that many?
 
T.I.L. about "ipv4_addrs_<if>" in /etc/rc.conf, a much better way to add a lot of IP addresses.

e.g.
Code:
ipv4_addrs_nfe0="10.0.0.1-10/24

Jails (public and private IPs) and SSL vhosts.
