This patch at first behaved similarly to the previous one - seemed to be

This is the syslog output at the time the network failed:

Could you go back to baseline sky2 driver. The display code might be buggy.
These bits indicate an error in the MAC. The interrupt source enabled
is Transmit FIFO underrun.
Looking at how vendor driver handles this.
It looks like the Yukon EC_U chip doesn't really do Jumbo frames correctly.
Maybe not enough internal buffering to ensure that the whole packet
is in the chip. Of course, none of this is in the chip manual.
Does this help

Ok ... results - and maybe some more clues...
Running with this patch; Jarek's "alternative 1", and the patch from the
other thread. Not so good.
No reported errors (sky2, etc.) - however with mtu=9000, lots of stuff
broke: XDMCP; http via MASQ/netfilter, ssh connections intermittently
(when large frames involved perhaps), etc. Tried to change mtu to 1500
on the fly, got a bunch of errors - and network watchdog kicked in. Have
now rebooted with the same patches and mtu=1500.
... with mtu=1500, Everything is again working (i.e., XDMCP, netfilter,
etc.)
Load test with mtu=1500 went well for a while - high throughput
sustained for a few minutes - then similar crash as before... but no
interrup error messages this time until after the oops:
