Hmm, Nothing at the moment.

The driver in the 1.3.2 kernel will be the eh device driver that was
etherH specific. -current kernels and the snapshots will use the newer ne
driver which supports the etherH and the etherM (Mike PUmford did the
etherH attachment code for the generic ne driver.

I am not aware of any differences between the ethernet drivers in the
various snapshots though I will take a look and see if there were any
changes.
