i'm quite happy to report that this new haswell hardware worked the first time
with nix 64 bit. the ahci stuff should "just work" due to the standard, but the
i210 gbe was entered speculatively, and it's pretty nice that it just seems to
work.
so don't let 'em tell you "plan 9 only works with older hardware". :-)
