I have always seen this on my external interface.  (Using the same
quad 10/100 Dlink card.)

My guess was that the cheap head-ends that the ISP's use will
underflow their tx's and then send an odd number of bits to signal
that they know something is wrong, but can't do anything about it.  At
least that is the only reason I can think of why only my *external*
interface does this.  (And it did this with athome cable,
telocity/northpoint dsl, and pacbell dsl.)
