Hmm, fixing these are beyond my skill...

BTW, are there anybody working on 'pcn' (yet another lance driver) to
work with VMware ? Current 5-current installation floppy makes VMware
panic (caution: FreeBSD doesn't panic), and it is maybe caused by pcn
driver when it knocks VMware pseudo ethernet device in 32bit mode.
Note that FreeBSD 4-stable works well with VMware, so maybe there are
hints in the differences between 4-stable and 5-current.
