It may help and/or accelerate things if you can narrow the fix(es) in
the current r8169 serie.

Instead, I built 2.6.21.5+[a patch I snatched from a mail communication
you had on 2007-06-20
(Msg-ID: [ref] )].
I will attach it with this mail, as it is really small and you don't
have to dig around to know what I'm talking about.

As I am no kernel-developer, I am not sure there are no undesired side
effects by applying this patch to this kernel; if you think there are
(could/should be), it would be nice if you could state that, so I'd
refrain from testing with this combination.

Following up to myself:

It seems like the patch is able to change things in a way which makes
the machine lock up hard. Pity that, looked so promising at first...
