i have also heard of it, as i wrote the original code and am currently
typing this on a terminal with 2x 82574 lom chips.

i have no idea why that was commented out.

you may have better luck with 82563 from 9atom.  it supports a
more hardware than the one in the distribution, and works around
some intel-mb bugs.
