We support hardware checksum offloading in both -current & -stable
both sending & receiving.  Jonathan Lemon's code is what got checked
in -- its considerably better than my private hacks.

I think the if_ti.c driver is the only drive to make use of it.  You
might want to peek at it if you're feeling like making the if_wx
driver offload checksums.

You can feel free to forward that ;)

BTW -- how is the if_wx.c driver?  Has it gotten any better (you were
talking about how poorly it performed & were going to see where the
bottleneck was the last I heard).
