Well, maybe it could be interesting to test with the Be Inc rtl8139 binary
driver available on BeBits. We're supposed to be binary compatible with
/dev/net/*/* ethernet drivers. I used their driver with BONE for years without
any issue.

I've never done such test under native haiku, but did some under BONE, with the
userland version and the kernel one. At this time, it was working.
