Link does not work for me.  But I got Robert's patch to
work with a small bit of hacking...  (I changed HZ to 1000
and it locked up 10 seconds after I started (pkts were sent,
but nothing received on any port).  However, I restarted,
and it ran all night with very few dropped packets...)

Does not work either...

Do you have any descriptions of what this feed patch does differently
from other drivers?
