This patch adds the possiblity to add an entry into Info.plist in order to change the MAC address. Simply add an entry called IOMACAddress into your cards entry with the new hardware address. The "official way" of setting the address with setHardwareAddress, did not work, since it seems impossible to refresh the MAC in the hardwareInterface.

The patch also uncomments the customEnabler since it seems to have no real use and keeps the driver from unloading. A small bug which leads to crash when unloading and reloading the driver is also fixed. (the nub was not unconfigured).

    Does this work in Tiger?
