 This is indeed a duplicate of PR port-sparc/33340 which is fixed
 in NetBSD-current:
 
 NetBSD ivanova.zhadum.org.uk 3.99.21 NetBSD 3.99.21 (IVANOVA) #0: Sat Jun 10 19:31:13 BST 2006  tron@colwyn.zhadum.org.uk:/export/scratch/tron/obj/sys/arch/sparc/compile/IVANOVA sparc

 hme2: Ethernet address 08:00:20:xx:xx:xx

 It seems that this bug is triggered by the CPU modules. My machine has
 a RT620/625 (100 MHz only), too.
 
 	Kind regards
