Ok, I had her run the release kernel (-23) and the issue is there too:
$ ifconfig eth0
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 1c:75:08:5a:9f:b1
UP BROADCAST MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1
RX packets:4294744618 errors:4293631228 dropped:4294521940

Interrupt:45
At this point, I think this bug can be closed. I'm not particularly
interested in fixing it since it is unrelated to the networking issues I
saw with -57. -58 seems to resolve the weird network issues she was
having so I think I'm good. Feel free to reopen if someone else can
reproduce and wants to pursue fixing it. Thanks!

Title:
incorrect ifconfig output for unused wired ethernet
Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
Won't Fix
Bug description:
I was trying to diagnose network problems on this machine and found that
Ubuntu 12.04 will show the following with ifconfig after a little while:
$ ifconfig eth0
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 1c:75:08:5a:9f:b1

eth0 is the wired ethernet and is not in use on this machine. The
machine is only using wlan0. I don't know if the network issues I am
seeing on the machine relate to this or not. I'm not sure when this
came up-- -55, -56, -57 and -58 all exhibit the problem (though, I
don't have a simple reproducer-- it seems to come up after using the
network for a while). -23 didn't produce the problem with the testing
I performed (ie, within the same amount of time that it would show up
with the other kernels). linux-generic-lts-saucy also didn't show it,
but I couldn't run that kernel for very long because the nvidia-304
driver didn't work properly there.
