 After updating my firewall box to 7.2-STABLE I started getting the=20
 watchdog timeouts with the link state going down and returning back up=20
 after couple of seconds on the xl interface. Some seeking from gnats=20
 returned this bug report.
 
 I applied the patch succesfully on:
 
 src/sys/pci/if_xl.c,v 1.210.2.2 2008/04/23 21:28:29
 
 and will give it a shot for some days in order to see if it breaks=20
 something or if the watchdog timeouts still keep occurring.  So far=20
 rebooting after fresh kernel seems to be ok.
