You would only hit an Oops if you used a zero mac address for
pnetwork->MacAddress.

Julia's patch is turning on some code that was never tested to make
it the common case.  So it will be easy to see if it works or not
when it gets merged.  ;P  To me it could go either way, (the test is
reversed or the memcpy() could be removed).
