>Description:
      ed(4) can't get correct MAC address with <corega K.K. corega FastEther PCC-TX>.
My /var/run/dmesg.boot has following messages:
 ed1: <corega K.K. corega FastEther PCC-TX> at port 0x140-0x15f irq 11 function 0 config 32 on pccard1
 ed1: [GIANT LOCKED]
 ed1: Ethernet address: aa:aa:aa:aa:aa:aa
 ed1: if_start running deferred for Giant
 type NE2000 (8 bit)

 ed1: NIC memory corrupt - invalid packet length 55295

On 5.2-Release and 5.2.1-Release ed(4) has worked very well.

Now, my host is stand-alone, so it's too difficult to get full dmesg.
