    I don't know when it first appeared. I just got my hands on this
    hardware and the problem has been there from the beginning.

    I've tested the pre-built 2.6.5-1 kernel that came with Fedora Core 2
    and the 2.6.9 kernel from kernel.org.

    The compiler is gcc 3.3.3.

    The hardware is a Dell Dimension 3000, 2.8 GHz P4 (not hyperthreading),
    with 512MB RAM. There are *two* Realtek RTL-8169 adapters installed.
    lspci identifies them as:

    Gigabit Ethernet (rev 10)
    01:02.0 Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL-8169
    Gigabit Ethernet (rev 10)


    lspci -vx gives:

    I will try -bk and follow up.

    I will also try yanking one of the two RealTek adapters to see if that
    makes any difference for the remaining adapter. (I should have thought
    of that before.)
