 Changing the code to do appropriate le16toh() in the mii logic fixed the 
 phy link detection problem.  However the device still doesn't work, and 
 I think it is probably due to the rxmode not also be handled in an 
 endian proper manner.  I'm testing that now.  Once I have it working, 
 I'll send diffs.
