I've gone ahead and done a conversion of dmfe to GLDv3 (nemo). I
actually have a dmfe device on SPARC (in this case its on a SPARC
laptop), so I figured this would be beneficial.
I'd like to have folks review the work at

Great to see another driver ported to Nemo.
Want to do the others as well... eri and hme are next on my hit
list. They will get a _lot_ smaller as a result. There's been
request for qfe (and also for qfe sources to be open) with support
for qfe on x86. However, those sources are not open yet, for reasons
beyond my understanding at the moment.
I would suggest focusing on the ones that are still heavily used
instead of the ones for legacy devices, and instead spend time on
making the GLDv3 interface officially public so that more
"interesting" drivers can be ported to GLDv3 :-)
hme and qfe are widely used cards, especially qfe as quad port
cards (10/100/1G) are not common and they provide a good way
to bring in a lot of networking.
eri is also quite common - all of the ultra5/10 boxes have them,
not to mention netra x1, etc.
