I looked through your code and it seems to be done in a better way than the 
half-baked CS8900 driver that is included in lwIP 0.4.2. For one thing, your 
driver uses IRQs for receiving packets, whereas the driver in 0.4.2 uses 
polling. (For some reason however, I can't seem to find your IRQ handlers...)

In 0.4.2, there is a driver skeleton that can be used for writing/porting 
network interface device drivers. It is in the file src/netif/ethernetif.c. 
If you use this file, I'd really be interested in how useful you found it to 
be.

Cheers,
