I have now installed 4.8-RELEASE on my machine.  Lets see
how long it will survive.  :-)

Hmm, mine is a bit different:
bge0: <Broadcom BCM5701 Gigabit Ethernet, ASIC rev. 0x105> mem 0xf7fb0000-0xf7fb
ffff irq 5 at device 5.0 on pci1

Thanks, that's very encouraging ...  however ...
My machine has a network traffic of 540 Gbyte a *DAY*.
That's about 16 Tbyte a month, if my /usr/bin/bc isn't
failing.  :-)
