Hi,

Was this bug finally found and fixed?  I get the enclosed warnings with

eth0: Tigon3 [partno(BCM95701A10) rev 0105 PHY(5701)] (PCIX:133MHz:64-bit)
10/100/1000Base-T Ethernet 00:06:5b:f3:43:66
eth0: RXcsums[1] LinkChgREG[1] MIirq[1] ASF[0] WireSpeed[1] TSOcap[0]
eth0: dma_rwctrl[76db000f] dma_mask[64-bit]

cards in active/backup bonding setup, without any bridging under
2.6.26-2-i686, the Debian Lenny stock kernel.  If if it was fixed, I
wonder if the fix could be perhaps backported to this kernel.  If not,
I'd like to help finding it.  I could get rid of them by turning of
GSO on both physical interfaces of the bond.
