Attached is a patch to manually specify the interface speed for situations
when it can't be determined automatically (Xen virtual machines):
[if_eth0]
env.speed 1000
Withouth this patch machine reboot causes a PB spike making the rest
of the data invisible.
Please include it in Debian packages and forward it upstream.
