 It seems that my duf/poliod webmail client messes up these messages, so I'll try to submit from here instead.
 
 I run another test today, checking out what OpenBSD says when the network card driver loads.

I am posting the relevant bit of OpenBSD dmesg in the hope that somebody way smarter than me will find it more useful than I did. :-)
 
 OpenBSD 4.1 on my crappy Netfinity 5000:
