I asked Don Becker about this a couple of times and got no response,
so I played with it and (I believe) fixed it myself. Replace the function
set_multicast_list in the Vortex 0.08 driver with this one, fix the prototype
(left as an exercise to the reader ;), and it should work again.
As an aside, it would be really nice (<hint> Don and Linus!) if this
driver were to get into the standard 1.3.x kernel package - other than this
interface change, it seems pretty stable.
