Some more data follows I tried to manual override via-rhine, using three other Realtek modules: r8169, 8139cp and 8139too.
The result is that modprobing -ring via-rhine causes the eth0 to disappear and none of the three Realtek modules is capable of building it again. Only when via-rhine is reloaded the eth0 device appears again. Hope this helps.
