I'm running this on -CURRENT (good job btw) and it appears to work; I've got an OC-3136 that for some reason wouldn't work with the driver in the tree (MAC address cam up all 0's and the driver reported that the board wasn't supported by the low level driver.) Some of your other changes look good but breaking with the style of the existing file is a no-no. Larry, would you like to give if_ol.c your stamp of approval and commit it on top of if_oltr.c? It might be a bit easier to deal with this as 2 separate files; one for the bus front end/FreeBSD version specific code and the other for the library interface code.
