	The interface in question is 10.0.3.2.  That interface has worked
fine for over a year.  That driver is in use on several other systems for
several years each.  No problems until now.

	I think that the NIC is on the logic board.  I can try to install
a PCI card and use that in its place to see if the problem goes away.
Should I bother?

	FWIW, a reboot of the system did not help.
