This got it.  I find it a bit disconcerting that nowhere in dmesg did it
show that anything was using the memory region around 0xd0000 and yet
that turned out to be the problem.   I *HATE* pc hardware.... I really do.

Thanks to all that gave ideas on fixing the problem.  My wireless network
is once again working.
