Hi folks...

I added support for the Lite-On/Macronix 82C115 `PNIC II' today:

tlp1 at pci0 dev 8 function 0: Lite-On 82C115 Ethernet, pass 2.5
tlp1: interrupting at kn20aa irq 16
tlp1: Ethernet address 00:a0:cc:35:68:66
tlp1: 10baseT, 10baseT-FDX, 100baseTX, 100baseTX-FDX, auto

I'm using this as the default interface on my AlphaStation 500 test machine.
It seems to work pretty well.

My test board is a LinkSys LNE100TX Version 2.0 ... it's in the blue box.

There is one known bug with the Macronix/PNIC II support: the built-in
NWay autonegotiation support doesn't yet work.  I spent a bunch of time
on it today, and couldn't get it working.  I'll try dumping more time
into it probably next week... but you can get going by setting the media
explicitly.
