These files contain a CVS Id dating them 2007-11-22 while CURRENT has
2009-05-30. Assuming these dates are reliable this means the patches are
roughly 19 months old and AFAIK 1000BaseTX support was added within the
last 6 months. I do not believe reverting back makes sense, if you know
better, please tell me.
There is another interesting patch aside which deals with TXCSUM
http://people.freebsd.org/~yongari/vge/vge.csum.patch
However, it is already included in CURRENT.
More ideas?
