I have to take some of what I said back. The network stalls were actually
due to a lot more stupid problem: the server went into a power saving
state and the NIC IRQ didn't wake it up (mouse did). After I disabled the
the relevant stupidnesses from the BIOS setup, it now works.
                                                                                
The error message, however, does appear with the 2.2.18pre17 eepro100.c,
while as the Becker's version does not show it for whatever reason.
