lnc0 in VmWare doesn't work

[Doug Ambrisko]

FYI, if you are using a newer version of vmware we ran into a bug in
which the virtual NICs are reset as the system boots up.  So once
interrupts are enabled you get a "storm" of packets ignored by driver.
Here is a patch for -stable that should be close for -current etc.
