Not sure if it has been resolved or not ... BUT ... if you rebuild this
driver for your kernels, it should be solved there for sure:

http://vault.centos.org/6.4/xen4/Source/SPackages/e1000e-2.4.14-3.4.54.1.el6.centos.alt.src.rpm

(That source RPM will build the latest upstream e1000e driver on the
installed kernel)

So you should be able to use an e1000e.
