No, certainly not, sorry. As it's no real showstopper on these
machines (simply leave it in autonegotiation mode ...) it's too
late in the release-cycle for such a change. Before committing
to -current I also want to give it some more thougths and test
it with some other Sun machines and cards also using a LU6612
PHY.
