[vbox-dev] <PATCH> Minor changes to e1000 device to support Phar Lap ETS

[Frank Mehnert]

Hi,

please note that we do not intend to backport this patch to VBox 4.3.x for
stability reasons, that is, even when we tested the patch with several
guests there is still a slight chance that it breaks certain guests.
Therefore the patch will be part of the next major release.

Thanks,

Frank
