Nope .. the version I'm running (presuming we are talking about
/sys/i386/isa/if_ep.c) ..

I should add that the failures are only observed under heavy _receive_
conditions or when promiscuous mode is enabled on a reasonably busy ether.
It restarts OK as soon as you drop out of trafshow. Transmit is OK as far as
I can test,
