This bug is keeping Avahi from working in Hardy on my Dell Vostro 220s
machines.  They have this NIC onboard:

>  lspci -vvnn -s 2:0
02:00.0 Ethernet controller [0200]: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. 
RTL8111/8168B PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet controller [10ec:8168] (rev 02)
        Subsystem: Dell Unknown device [1028:0283]
        Control: I/O+ Mem+ BusMaster+ SpecCycle- MemWINV- VGASnoop- ParErr- 
Stepping- SERR- FastB2B-
        Status: Cap+ 66MHz- UDF- FastB2B- ParErr- DEVSEL=fast >TAbort- <TAbort- 
<MAbort- >SERR- <PERR-
        Latency: 0, Cache Line Size: 32 bytes
        Interrupt: pin A routed to IRQ 220
        Region 0: I/O ports at d800 [size=256]
        Region 2: Memory at feaff000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=4K]
        Region 4: Memory at fdff0000 (64-bit, prefetchable) [size=64K]
        Expansion ROM at feac0000 [disabled] [size=128K]
        Capabilities: <access denied>

The symptom is that the machines do not receive any multicast traffic,
unless the NIC is in promiscuous mode.

Debian fixed this in Lenny by cherry-picking the fixes out of the
upstream kernel git: <http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-
bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=514268>

Please consider fixing this for an upcoming Hardy kernel, thanks!
