In our system it appears that setting AUTOC.LMS to 000b ends up causing the far end to synchronize at 1GB. Too smart for its own good, I guess. Some good news though...apparently my earlier experiments were being done at the wrong location in the code and were being overridden by subsequent code. Once I put it in a suitable place, setting AUTOC.LMS to IXGBE_AUTOC_LMS_10G_SERIAL was enough to "break" the link.
