   With some Gigabit SFP's, auto-negotiation is actually required
by spec, since they have to negotiate who is the master clock for
the link.  There is at least one vendor that gets that wrong and
the support group at work is forever telling customers the URL
that explains why that vendors gear violates the specs and doesn't
work with ours.
