plb_temac 3.00.a and hard_temac 3.00.b. The driver is the one that was 
generated in the BSP using Xilinx EDK 8.2, adapter.c says v2.00b.

The only code that I have added myself is a header file xio.h containing:
#include <asm/io.h>
#define XIo_In32(p) in_be32((volatile void *)p)
#define XIo_Out32(p,v) out_be32((volatile void *)p,v)
#define XIo_Out8(p,v) out_8((volatile void *)p,v)

I did try that, and it seems to work even worse. It claims the speed is 
set to 10Mbit but the LEDs show it's still in 100Mbit operation as it is 
directly after programming the FPGA... The transmit LED is on for a 
short while before the Link carrier lost message. Startup messages shown 
below.
