I understand and I don't even find current imlementation that
inconvenient (both have their drawbacks). Just asked to make sure if
there is other (maybe better/easier) way of doing things.

Anyway I've tested that kernel built the way described earlier and I
consider RTL8169 support stable. I've looked at r8169.c to make sure it
really doesn't contain any code that tries to load non free firmware and
everything is "pure" there. So, is it okay to include those patches and
update the package to 46gnewsense2? Or maybe there is more work to do
and you need help with something?

Happy hacking!
