Well, it did move the IRQ back to 14:

3c59x.c:v0.99H 11/17/98 Donald Becker http://cesdis.gsfc.nasa.gov/linux/drivers/vortex.html
eth0: 3Com 3c905 Boomerang 100baseTx at 0xfcc0, 00:c0:4f:9b:f8:a9, IRQ 14
8K word-wide RAM 3:5 Rx:Tx split, autoselect/MII interface.
MII transceiver found at address 24, status 786d.
Enabling bus-master transmits and whole-frame receives.
