John,
you are correct. There is a slew of devices on the same IRQ:

ahc0: <Adaptec aic7890/91 Ultra2 SCSI adapter> port 0xe800-0xe8ff mem 
0xfe203000-0xfe203fff irq 10 at device 6.0 on pci0
bge0: <Broadcom BCM5700 Gigabit Ethernet, ASIC rev. 0x7104> mem 
0xfcf00000-0xfcf0ffff irq 10 at device 6.0 on pci1
pci2: <unknown card> (vendor=0x9005, dev=0x00c5) at 6.1 irq 10
isp0: <Qlogic ISP 2200 PCI FC-AL Adapter> port 0xbc00-0xbcff mem 
0xeff00000-0xeff00fff irq 10 at device 8.0 on pci3
bge1: <Broadcom BCM5701 Gigabit Ethernet, ASIC rev. 0x105> mem 
0xead00000-0xead0ffff irq 10 at device 6.0 on pci14

However, prior to 1.3.2.28, I had zero spurious "link up" messages, and 
I have made no
h/w changes in the last 12 months.

I applied the patch to 1.3.2.28, and rebooted, and I am still suffering 
from the
spurious messages and intermittent lost packets.  Unfortunately, I have 
no idea what
version of if_bge.c I was running prior to the cvsup which landed me in 
this mess.

I have just reverted to 1.3.2.26, sans patch, and am about to boot 
that.....
