Ok, I have found what the problem is: apparently, this was an
access right problem when creating the entry for the driver in
the sysfs.
By comparing the RTnet driver with Linux 2.6.13.2's driver, I
have found the reason: the module name in the driver (file
rtnet-0.9.0/drivers/experimental/r8169/rt_r8169.c) contains a
slash!
I have modified the line:
#define MODULENAME "RTL8169s/8110s"
into:
#define MODULENAME "rt_r8169"
FYI, Linux's driver r8169.c defines
#define MODULENAME "r8169"
After recompiling, the problem disappears: the driver loads
nicely, and detects correctly both my cards.
Cf. the output of dmesg:

and the output of rtifconfig:

I still have to find it the drivers are actually working...
