    Thanks, you solved this for me on Saturday I think, after
I wrote the message that eventually made it through to the
mailing list this morning.  With your help and that from other
people in the #netbsd channel on Freenode, we're a big chunk
of the way there.  One end of the cable is a NetBSD/i386 7.2
host and, with a patched kernel, I have been able to assign an
IP address.  When I left the house this morning the other end,
a NetBSD/amd64 8.0 host, was compiling a similarly-patched
kernel.  I hope to test the link this evening and will report
the results here.

Thanks again,
