[Mageia-dev] Sudden problems with r8169 NICs ?

I updated cauldron this morning, and later rebooted my desktop.  My 
+r8169 on eth0 is suddenly having problems, maybe due to the new kernel.  
+The chipset is an r8169 variant:
+
+Mar 23 15:58:23 localhost kernel: r8169 Gigabit Ethernet driver 
+2.3LK-NAPI loaded
+Mar 23 15:58:23 localhost kernel: r8169 0000:02:00.0: PCI INT A -> GSI 
+19 (level, low) -> IRQ 19
+Mar 23 15:58:23 localhost kernel: r8169 0000:02:00.0: setting latency 
+timer to 64
+Mar 23 15:58:23 localhost kernel: r8169 0000:02:00.0: irq 41 for MSI/MSI-X
+Mar 23 15:58:23 localhost kernel: r8169 0000:02:00.0: eth0: 
+RTL8168d/8111d at 0xffffc900117fc000, 00:30:67:2f:0a:fc, XID 083000c0 IRQ 41
+
+but it's been known for a year or more that this variant needs firmware, 
+and it's already installed:
+
+[root at ftgme2 rtl_nic]# pwd
+/lib/firmware/rtl_nic
+[root at ftgme2 rtl_nic]# ls
+rtl8168d-1.fw  rtl8168d-2.fw
+
+and this chip has been working under mageia from the beginning.  Now I get:
+
+Mar 23 14:14:27 localhost draknetcenter[4777]: running: /sbin/ifup eth0 
+daemon
+Mar 23 14:14:27 localhost ifplugd(eth0)[5027]: ifplugd 0.28 initializing.
+Mar 23 14:14:27 localhost kernel: r8169 0000:02:00.0: eth0: unable to 
+apply firmware patch

+eth0/00:30:67:2F:0A:FC with driver <r8169> (version: 2.3LK-NAPI)
+Mar 23 14:14:27 localhost kernel: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): eth0: link is not 
+ready

+SIOCETHTOOL
+Mar 23 14:14:27 localhost ifplugd(eth0)[5027]: Initialization complete, 
+link beat not detected.
+
+What changed ?  Previously, I would get:
+
