It could be worthwhile to check if lance (Am7990) and pcnet (Am79C970A)
drivers could be merged. This was discussed briefly some years ago:
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2004-10/msg00364.html
Yes, a quick look shows 79c970a has one rx/tx buffer management mode which is software-compatible with 7990 chip (SWMODE=0) There may be more backward-compatibility bits to be unified. Anyone? :)
