FWIW, the new driver doesn't disable RCMP filtering on this NIC. :(

But, doing this to the new driver solves the immediate problem for me:

diff -u -d -r1.3 e1000_82540.c

        manc &= ~E1000_MANC_ARP_EN;

        E1000_WRITE_REG(hw, E1000_IMC, 0xffffffff);

If you can point me to the propper place or way to effect this.  I
can see situations where someone would not want to turn this filtering
off - if they have the IPMI daughterboard on their motherboard.
