It works on Amiga now, too. It can still use some optimizations in
the irq_{enable,disable,ack,mask,mask_ack,unmask} area, as my
BogoMIPS rating dropped by ca 2.5% and is now under 16, for a 25 MHz
68040.

Seems like everything (Atari/ARAnyM and Amiga) still works when using
handle_simple_irq instead of handle_level_irq. As a bonus, BogoMIPS is
above 16 again.

Your bogomips benchmark would be the best-case penalty, right?

Have you tried say, sending a ping flood to measure throughput and
latency?

Results on Amiga 4000/040 (25 MHz 68040, 12 MiB Fast RAM) with Ariadne Ethernet,
running 3.0-rc7.

I did some more refactoring which made the Mac conversion trivial (but
still untested).
I'll prepare it for publishing when the kids leave me alone ;-)
