It does? that's definately not the right thing to do at all, so I'd like to
retract my ACK to that patch.

We want to move users over to e1000e, because with 2.6.26 they must (or at one
point in time anyway).

I'm all for making the move easier, but I'm really against prolonging these hacks
that make people just bump their noses later. If they hit the problem now instead
of when 2.6.26 ships, then it's all for the better IMHO.
