v0.91 and SMC 8342T troubles

[Dana Hudes]

Somehow v0.91 is an improvement in that the card 
stays in 10baseT mode longer.

Here is /et/conf.modules:

alias scsi_hostadapter aic7xxx
alias eth0 tulip
options eth0 options=12 debug=6

Here are the results from tulip-diag:
./tulip-diag -f -e -e -a -m -m

Here is the tulip driver announce in /var/log/messages:

Here, finally, is the various messages about eth0 from today's reboot
after building v0.91
