i've been using a 3com XL quite happily for months now.
it will hang up if you haven't got the txashift change posted
here some time ago.  the newer card has got a bigger fifo,
and the representation of the TxAvailable value differs
(it's in words, not bytes, or some such thing).

b.com needs a similar change.

i wasn't sure whether the plan9.bell-labs.com updates had
the change, but i thought they had.  i haven't had a chance
to fetch the boddles to check.  i've a feeling that the kernel's
driver has got the change but b.com's hasn't.
