I have a big mac ethernet card in a sparc 5 running NetBSD 1.4K (but I
saw the same issue with NetBSD 1.4).

ifconfig reports a status of "no carrier" on be0, but traffic properly
flows in and out of the card.

I'm curious if this should properly display a carrier detect or if it will
show "no carrier" no matter what.
