This seems to be an invalid situation - you appear to have an _ISA_ NE2000 card using IRQ3, trying to share the same interrupt as a serial port. ISA interrupts aren't sharable without additional hardware support or specific software support in the Linux kernel interrupt architecture.
If the drivers are written "correctly", they shouldn't grab the IRQ until someone actually opens the device. Which means they should be able the share the IRQ, so long as both devices are not in use (open) at the same time.
