There's an awful lot of code duplication (due to hardware similarties) in r8169, 8139cp, and 8139too.I have not really considered 8139too so far as its hardware is a bit "different" but why not. 8139cp and 8139too both share the same phy code, and 8139cp and r8169 both share the same RX/TX code. soon ? What have you done to the real Jeff ?
hehe :)
