Hmm, I just "discovered" that I'm running obviously the same type of card
in a stock 1.5 machine, using the "de" driver.  I haven't seen any of the
messages mentioned on that box, at least not recently:

de0: SMC 9332BDT 21140A [10-100Mb/s] pass 2.0

I'd prefer the tlp driver, since it's what the 1.6.1 generic kernel
auto-configured (and it seems to be newer) but I guess I could switch
to using the de driver if tlp makes up more trouble.
If it's a driver issue, it would be nice if it could be fixed ;).
