 This is almost a zero-content PR.  And I'm not sure what pointing it to 
 the -amd64 list is going to achieve.  Its a network driver missing, not 
 an amd64 port problem.  It applies to both i386 and amd64 kernels.  And 
 the amd64 users are not exactly in a position to resolve the PR.
 
 In fact, most of the PR's set to 'amd64' are mis-filed. These days, the 
 list is for users more so than developers.
