Nah, the network driver was updated in Stable[2].

Well, I found I'd accidentally left myself an unused partition :-)
So I went ahead and did a regular install using the current weekly build
netinst iso.
Unfortunately, the problem(s) is/are still there.
Sure, I had no reason to believe the hang was fixed in wheezy. What
changed is that stable gained an updated network driver; I had been
hoping to see whether _that_ worked.
OK, I'll get a blank DVD today and see if the live image works.

If it did, it would be possible to confirm, by upgrading only the kernel,
linux-base, and initramfs-tools[1]:
1. That it's the kernel that broke on this hardware in sid, not some
userland component
2. Whether installing the firmware-linux-nonfree package helps
3. As a bonus, which version of the kernel introduced the trouble (by
bisecting through the available kernels in snapshot.debian.org)
