So .. it should work to ...

a) build for mvme5500 and run on mvme6100?
b) add alias to build for mvme6100 and fix x odd
     issues for mvme6100

Does this mean the network driver works?  How
bad is "not optimized" really?

Just asking because I know you are a perfectionist and
wanted to get an accurate description of the status. :)
