Just checked the mvme172 and it has the 82596 on it so this driver 
should work. It has been a while since I looked at this.

I attach my driver support routines for the mvme172 so it is archived on 
the list.

It does contain my private 'rtems_interrupt_catch_with_void' where a 
'void*' is passed back to the interrupt handler. It will not be hard to 
change and bounce to the driver interrupt.

I can send off line the other support files I have for VC2 and MC2 
devices it you need to reference them as this code does contain calls to 
them.

Watch the MAC address setup. It maybe specific to the mvme172.

I have not checked the driver for performance as it was not an issue, 
but it has proved to be stable.

Updating the mvme167 BSP to use libchip would be great.
