I've got an almost finished version of a new driver (if_ew probably) 
that supports the non-lance functionality of this driver. It loads as a 
kld and is newbussed but crashes when I try to use it so I need to do 
some more work :-)

The lance functionality from this driver *should* be supported by the 
lnc driver but I've no hardware to test it and it may need some tweaking 
to get it working. If anyone has lance hardware that used to work with 
if_le I'd be interested in working with them to make the lnc driver 
support it.

If anyone misses this driver then let me know and I'll make more effort 
to get it finished, otherwise it'll probably remain as a side project 
for me since I have little time these days.

Paul.
