It doesn't show up when I run arp, but it also doesn't look like turning
on gratuitous arps has any effect on this card. At least if it does,
it's not reflected in the "print" command:

Also, I probably should have mentioned that I originally tried setting
this up using the same IP address as eth0 (XXX.XXX.XXX.206). It was only
after that failed that I started trying a separate IP address (.205).
The errors were the same whether I used .206 or .205.
