The RX_ALIGN shouldn't strictly be needed. It's a performance improvement.
It means the misaligned access handling isn't working right. And should be
spewing something to the kernel dmesg buf. IIRC, Randolph Chung has done a
great job on getting most of the misaligned access emulation working right.
If you get console/dmesg output when using eepro100, please post it here.

If someone with CVS access has time, please enable the RX_ALIGN
code for __hppa__ as well. I have other changes outstanding (cpqfc)
that I want to finished up and committed first.
