Yeah. I encountered this odd phenomenon when I tested my 3C900
adapter. Several testers also reports this. 3C590 and 3C595 adapters
work completely fine.

Technical documentations for 3C900 adapters are not yet available from
3COM, so I cannot tell whether it is a bug or a feature. Anyway, we
have to treat symptoms. I will test Paul's patch, which seems to be
hopeful.
