Does this solve spurious "le0: No carrier - transceiver cable problem?"
messages as well?  Our network people have been reinstalling ethernet
boards left and right, etc., but I keep thinking maybe it's a software
prob.

[[Ed's Note: These messages (No carrier) were discussed in some detail a
while back (v8n80 v8n88 v8n98 v8n121 among others), and then general
consensus seemed to be that this was usually a hardware problem with loose
connections being the #1 cited cause. -bdg]]
