Actually, Bill Paul told me that the dc driver should work with most
21140 and 21140A cards that use a miibus tranceiver.  It's only when they
run into the internal ethernet interface that there is likely to be trouble.
I had a 21140AE card sitting in .au (which I now have) and will test the
theory.  2104x cards (10 mbit only) are right out.

Cheers,
