 Whether media selection is supported is a property of the concrete device
 driver (some hardware simply can not offer any choice).
 
 Does
 
 	ifconfig -m de0
 
 show a list of available media in 9.x? I only have a 8.x MicroVax3900 simh
 instance handy and the qt0 in there does not show any media options,
 and also
 
 	ifconfig qt0 $some.ip media autoselect
 
 causes the same error message from ifconfig (SIOCGIFMEDIA:
 Inappropriate ioctl for device).
