Hi,
I fear the change is too big for me to review currently.

via ifconfig. It would be really great to be able to ask for all the =
bits. Not sure how linux for example handles that for mii-tool/ethtool =

I should not forget to mention that I think what you are trying to do in =
harmonizing things currently is excellent progress!
