I notice that if_fxp.c seems to fail silently when unable to
allocate network buffers, perhaps the fact that the kernel can
be doing about 200 or more messages per-second makes me guess
that it's not helping things, especially when the box has a
serial console.
I'm taking the printf's out of my copy of if_xl.c on a 3.5
system, I'll let you know if it still goes nuts for extended
amounts of time.
