I'm seeing the same.  (The second (?) being a heart symbol, how cute.)

Nope, if I manually configure with fsysopts, it does work fine (3c905B
NIC).

I did this earlier, which NetDDE/GNU Mach countered with some message
whose text I have forgotten, but perhaps something related to
memory-management things, and shortly after I noticed that invoking diff
would fail with a SEGFAULT.  GDB wasn't helpful (told me diff failed at
PC 0).  "Fixed" by re-installing the very same diffutils package: »dpkg
-i /var/cache/apt/...«.  Shortly after, invoking less failed the same
way...  I rebooted -- recovered.  Perhaps some issues in memory
management in DDE/the respective GNU Mach parts after killing a NetDDE
instance?
