OK, thanks for the update.  For now, I am using this workaround:

--- if_xl.c.orig        Sat Apr 17 12:15:16 2004
+++ if_xl.c     Sat Apr 17 12:16:22 2004
_at__at_ -1373,6 +1373,7 _at__at_
                sc->xl_flags |= XL_FLAG_PHYOK;

        switch (did) {
+       case TC_DEVICEID_BOOMERANG_10BT_COMBO:  /* added by rodrigc */
        case TC_DEVICEID_BOOMERANG_10_100BT:    /* 3c905-TX */
        case TC_DEVICEID_HURRICANE_575A:
        case TC_DEVICEID_HURRICANE_575B:

Hopefully your newer patch won't require this.

Thanks.
