Okay, so I didn't read far enough. The Debian guys fixed this by substituting the e1000e driver for the e1000 which they think doesn't have this problem. The e1000e driver comes with the kernel I'm running (sprite 2.6.24-16-generic) but I can't get it to bind to the ethernet hardware. It loads fine but doesn't create the device.
