de4x5 vs. tulip on PPC

On my machine, de4x5.c works, while tulip.c doesn't.

Machine is a CHRP/PPC box, Ethernet is 21041 based D-Link DE-530CT.

Relevant kernel messages:

| eth0: DC21041 at 0x1080 (PCI bus 0, device 4), h/w address 00:80:c8:5a:f8:5b, 
                                                             ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|       and requires IRQ29 (provided by PCI BIOS). 
| de4x5.c:V0.543 1998/12/30 davies at maniac.ultranet.com 
| eth0: media is TP. 

| tulip.c:v0.89H 5/23/98 becker at cesdis.gsfc.nasa.gov 
| eth0: Digital DC21041 Tulip at 0x1080, 21041 mode, 80 00 5a c8 5b f8, IRQ 29. 
                                                     ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
| eth0: 21041 transmit timed out, status fc680000, CSR12 000001c8, CSR13 ffffef05, CSR14 ffffff3f, resetting...

So at least the Ethernet HW address is in the wrong endiannes for tulip.c.

Are there people who can use tulip.c on a big endian machine?

Greetings,
