Besides the broken tinderbox, you did not connected the igb module to
the module build. Is this intentional ?
No, not intentional, both issues are now fixed, sorry, was tired yesterday
afternoon :)
Is it still true that support for the 575 moved from em to igb? If so,
please put an entry in src/UPDATING about it and ask the re/docs team to
make sure it's documented in the next release notes.
