For  what it's worth, I have been using an NE2100 in my NetBSD 0.9A box
for over 9 months now.  I'm not using the if_le driver, as my release
predates that driver's existence, however, it has worked flawlessly for me
and  I get excellent through put on it.  I have booted the if_le driver for
it and that has worked as well, although my testing has not been nearly as
extensive.
