As if by magic, a student with a network problem just appeared with a laptop
which apparently has a Broadcom 440x in it (according to XP). I take it we
have the relevant string in pcidevs, but not actually a driver for it?
I found what appears to be GPL'd source code for a linux driver for it,
which I suppose could be used as a spec.. (Is one allowed to read it?)

(The network problem was NetBSD(my laptop) & XP(her laptop) clients
get dhcp replies from a NetBSD dhcpd via an HP2424M switch, but
only the NetBSD client manages via a 3COM 3300XM - I wanted to run
NetBSD on her laptop..)
