the version of mii-tool referenced below (plus the patch below) provides 
support for more mii types, and more importantly, allows it to report 
1000baseT link states (which are otherwise misreported as 100baseT).

please upgrade the version in net-tools... thanks!

thanks, I have added that to HEAD of net-tools CVS, will also be in next
debian package version.

Here is a version that does standard 1000baseT support.
