Excellent.  It was on my personal to-do list, but I'm still bogged
down in other tasks.  So I second the "Go Ben Go!" sentiment!

If I had one potentially non-obvious design request it's that the PHYs
be accessible by board code, too.  There are a number of boards that
have specific demands on the PHYs.  I suspect you've already got that,
though, since it's currently possible. :)
