argh! I just don't want to believe this. Using a more recent version of
gcc helped to fix the problem. Now I get lots of these:

[tg3-5701]Ethernet addr: 00:04:76:F3:A9:CE

Link is up at 1000 Mbps, full duplex. TX RX flow control                        
Searching for server (DHCP)...                                                  
..UDP checksum error                                                            
.UDP checksum error                                                             
.UDP checksum error

After a while it works:

..Me: 192.168.0.20, Server: 192.168.0.23
