Interestingly, one of my adapters (a LinkSys) always locks the machine when
plugged into a 100Mbit network, but the other one (a Belkin) never does.
Or at least it hasn't yet.  Fortunately my cable modem only talks 10baseT 
so the LinkSys is fine on there :-)

Anyway, the problem in kern/69319 is quite different and only affects 4.x.
