Hello, all.

I've put in my web page (http://www.euitt.upm.es/~pjlobo/fbsdvlan.html) an
updated version of the patch to add vlan support to the fxp driver. This
patch differs from the previous releases in two major aspects:

- It doesn't modify if_vlan.c anymore. Instead, it uses ifi_hdrlen to tell
if_vlan.c that it supports long frames.

- It adds hardware support for long frames for the 82558/9
controllers. The code is taken from the OpenBSD driver.

I'd suggest that this patch should be merged into the main tree, but there
is still a minor problem: the physical device's output byte counter is
still broken. All other counters (input and output) work as expenced, and
the virtual devices's counters are all ok. I still haven't found the time
to investigate it.

Any comment, suggestion, etc., is welcome.

Cheers,

	Pedro.
