You didn't, but Debian did.  The kernel-source package replaces the
3c59x.c file with a slightly more recent one from the author that works
under reasonable network load.  If you have exceptionally high load,
especially with 100baseT networking, the driver can lock up under stress
and you should check out the author's site for a more recent driver which
should fix it.
