I wanted to upgrade my stable and but now am afraid to
reboot with the new kernel as I've got one of these bge0 cards.


dmesg reveals:

brgphy0: <BCM5750 10/100/1000baseTX PHY> PHY 1 on miibus0

a different version of BCM, not BCM 5754

and the log of cvsup shows:

Edit src/sys/dev/bge/if_bge.c

Would you advise using the old kernel?  Should I have
posted to -questions?
