pcnet32 (maybe more) hosed in 2.4.3

Linux 2.4.3, Debian Woody. 2.4.2 works without problems. However, in
2.4.3, pcnet32 loads, gives an error message:

Mar 30 18:45:09 obsidian kernel: pcnet32_probe_pci: found device

Though it does still load.

However, the interface does not come up. (DHCP doesn't work, can't even
assign a manual address).

Worse, I get multiple entries for the driver in /proc/interrupts. Each
time I attempt to bring the interface up another is added so I have:

  5: 11276 11416 IO-APIC-level aic7xxx, PCnet/FAST 79C971,
PCnet/FAST 79C971, PCnet/FAST 79C971

When I attempt to rmmod the driver, even if there is only one, I get a
Kernel OOPS (in the interrupt handler, so it wasn't written
anywhere). I'll attempt to copy it down by hand and post to the list in a
bit.
