Ugh?

I think you have to thank IBM/AMCC designers which keep changing bit 
layout of some registers, sometimes just changing polarity for no 
reason.

And with all due respect, Ben. Current ibm_emac despite of all "mess" 
is actually usable in production environment, which cannot be said 
about initial Armin version and second version you started but never 
got time to actually finish.
