I need to test, but I think this is a problem with testing hotplug (and
discover maybe).

Even with a single realtek card, the two modules are loaded.

diablero@vaio:~$ ( lspci ; lspci -n ) | grep 10.0
0000:00:10.0 Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd.
RTL-8139/8139C/8139C+ (rev 10)
0000:00:10.0 0200: 10ec:8139 (rev 10)
diablero@vaio:~$ lsmod | grep ^8139
8139cp                 20672  0 
8139too                26112  0 
diablero@vaio:~$ dpkg -l hotplug | grep ^ii
