A few days ago I posted a small patch for linux/src/drivers/net/Space.c
to correct a problem introduced in Linux kernel version 1.3.7.  The
ordering of device structure members had changed slightly such that
defining ETH0_IRQ was ineffective because of where the constant
appeared in the initialization of eth0_dev.

Applying the patch set for kernel version 1.3.11 alters
<linux/netdevice.h> such that the "irq" member of the device
structure is now back where it was in kernel versions prior to
1.3.7, so IF you applied my "Space.c" patch, you should back it out
when you go to 1.3.11.
