fxp driver unaligned access panic

I cvsupped -CURRENT to my alpha (miata) approximately 20 hours ago and
buildworld/kernel and installed them.  I had an 'unused' fxp nic in my
alpha - was there for testing stuff a few weeks ago - and the new kernel
refused to boot - I had the fxp driver built in to the kernel...  At boot,
I got an unaligned access error and panic when the fxp card was probed.
Taking the card out removed the symptoms and I'm building a kernel without
fxp right now so I can play with it as a module when I get back to the box
this evening.  I'll try and provide more useful debugging info tonight or
tomorrow, but if anyone else has an alpha and some fxp cards, you may want
to try them out...
