 Further to my original bug report which unfortunately seemed to be an
 incomplete and old verison, here's what I hope is the necessary information:
 
 ------- Forwarded message -------

 It's one of those rebadged-something-else jobs. It calls itself a NetLynx
 RE450CT although I very much doubt that they're the manufacturer.

 Now that I don't know. I'd naively assumed it was the standard NE2000 driver
 from the dmesg output.
 
 Er... Looking at the mail I sent, I'd say that something happened
 incorrectly with sendbug :( I'd included the output from dmesg in the
 version I sent and cancelled the version that seems to have been sent. Oh
 well. Here's the dmesg output that should have been sent:
 
 pcic0 at isa0 port 0x3e0/2 iomem 0xd0000/16384
 pcic0 controller 0: <Intel 82365SL rev 2> has sockets A and B
 pcmcia0 at pcic0 controller 0 socket 0
 pcmcia1 at pcic0 controller 0 socket 1
 ne3 at pcmcia1 function 0 "Ethernet, Adapter, 2.0" port 0x340/16 irq 3
 ne3: address 00:e0:98:04:8e:29
 pcic0: irq 10

 OK. It's:
 
   kernel page trap fault, code=0
   Stopped at _strcmp+0xe: movb 0(%eax),%cl
