That's odd, I have two Bering installations, one regular, once UClibc and both are running 3Com 509B cards. Are your cards the 509 or 509B?
I'm not having any problems, but i have access to both type of cards. I could try to recreate the problem at my end with a test machine to narrow down the problem. Let me know all the specs on hardware so I can try to duplicate your machine as closely as possible.
