I was kindda certain that i had ep* on pci? in the config file, but I
took a second look at it and turned out I really got isa? in it; the
reason is that I swap my ethernet cards to see if the 3c509 works,
it did not, but I forgot to change the config back to pci?... :)

big oops...
I tried it again, and ifconfig'ed it, and it seems to be working! (it
hasn't kernel panic yet) :)
so, the temporary hack to fix the ep0 thing is to compile elink3.c
without optimization? weird... too bad spro doesn't run on netbsd,
it'll prolly do a better job than gcc... :)
