Does de(4) on NetBSD ever support non-DEC clones?
I don't think so.

tulip_pci_probe(
    struct device *parent,
    cfdata_t match,
    void *aux)
{
    struct pci_attach_args *pa = (struct pci_attach_args *) aux;

    /* Don't match lmc cards */
    if (PCI_VENDOR(pci_conf_read(pa->pa_pc, pa->pa_tag,
        PCI_SUBSYS_ID_REG)) == PCI_VENDOR_LMC)
        return 0;
    if (PCI_VENDORID(pa->pa_id) != DEC_VENDORID)
        return 0;
    if (PCI_CHIPID(pa->pa_id) == CHIPID_21040
            || PCI_CHIPID(pa->pa_id) == CHIPID_21041
            || PCI_CHIPID(pa->pa_id) == CHIPID_21140
            || PCI_CHIPID(pa->pa_id) == CHIPID_21142)
        return 1;

    return 0;

Anyway, I've tried my MX98715AEC with several kernels:

1.5.3:
 auto: tlp driver didn't support it (yet)
 manual 10baseT: works
 manual 100baseTX: works

1.6.2:
2.1:
5.0:
 auto: doesn't get proper speed
 manual 10baseT: works
 manual 100baseTX: doesn't work

So we should check diff between 1.5 and 1.6?
