   I had a report of an NE2000 clone not passing the station address checksum
after a warmboot, but this is the first problem I've heard with the SMC
Ultra. The only significant change that's been made is the 0WS flag is turned
on, but this should only affect accesses to the shared memory. You might want
to add some printf's to the probe code to find out which test is failing.
