I tested 2.6.29 and mac8390 fails like 2.6.39 in this system. This also
required a backport of the patch discussed earlier in this thread, since
2.6.29 has commit ca17584bf2ad1b1e37a5c0e4386728cc5fc9dabc.
I also tested 2.6.19 which pre-dates that commit, and it too failed in
the same way.
Anyway, the mac8390 driver issue here may be unrelated to your zorro8390
bug (and may simply be a quirk of this particular card).
It turns out that the mac8390 issue is unrelated. The cause was the old
nubus interrupt problem. I worked around it and after that the driver
passed a 1 hour smoke test (several simultaneous ping floods running
locally and remotely with neglible packet loss).
So, what's the difference between mac8390 and zorro8390? In the mac8390
case, there is only one way for lib8390.c symbols to end up in the link,
and that is mac8390.
On amiga, it is a different story: there's at least apne, zorro8390 and
the ISA NE-2000 drivers that could be pulling in these symbols. So I think
you should try this patch, which takes the same approach that's used in
ax88796.c.
