Interestingly, today a similar procedure worked.. without device
timeouts.  This time I dropped right into the fixit shell and configured
the card without first letting sysinstall attempt its stuff.  I also
used dhclient right from start (instead of first fumbling a static
address onto the card).  Sysinstall still complained and presented me
with the network dialog (why is there no way to skip this?  There should
be an option "network already configured") but it apparently didn't
clobber the settings.  Perhaps I'll try another reinstall later and see
if I was just lucky (or unlucky the last one) or if it's more reliable
that way.
