These patches were for "current". The file alc2.patch should modify
sys/pci/files.pci by itself.
Since I used linguistic tricks to "translate" OpenBSD version of
if_alc.c into an almost working NetBSD version (I know nothing about
kernel drivers, networking and so on), and since these recipes were
based on "current" drivers, I can't help you to port into non-CURRENT
kernel.

Good luck
