And just as we were about to give up I got another datapoint.

Changed phy-mode and managed mode as follows in the device tree as a
last desperate attempt:

	mac@1 {
		compatible = "mediatek,eth-mac";
		reg = <1>;
		label = "wan";
//		phy-mode = "2500base-x";
		phy-mode = "sgmii";
		managed = "in-band-status";
		phy-handle = <&phy6>;
	};

Made things fail with 2.5G, as expected I guess. But this actually works
with 1G!

Except for an unexpected packet drop.  But at least there are packets
coming through at 1G now.  This is the remote end of the link:

Now, if we only could figure out what the difference is between this and
what we configure when the mode is changed from 2500base-x to sgmii.
