Thanks Nathan. You were correct, the rum driver does work with the adapter. Works very well in fact. I can ping and ftp, but I have no browser yet; lynx/links/and w3m all refuse to compile, and there seems to be no xorg for fbsd-ppc (yet?). Any suggestions on how to either get a text-browser working, and/or tweak the compiler for ppc/imacG3 are welcome.
