This commit looks a bit suspect -- it was not CC'd to this list -- in

So now mac8390.c and 8390.c both #include "lib8390.c"... might this
perhaps lead to the wrong ei_inb/outb etc in the final link?

It does seem like an odd change. It would be nice if this list got
copied on changes to any nubus drivers, but I suppose it's not anywhere
on the maintainers list. It might be something to bring up with David
for any future changes to nubus network cards.

Probably the change looked sufficient trivial/innocent. Trivial updates for core
changes are usually posted on the subsystem mailing list only.

I'll try to find some time to build a kernel and try it out. I have
several cards that use this driver.

Good, thanks!
