 no they're not - i put the feedback onto pin 56 of EOMA68.  it was
very hard to get hold of low-profile ethernet transformers, and they
were... _expensive_.   so, that's moved to the other side of the
EOMA68 interface.  it was only when i looked closely at the Q-Seven
standard that i realised whoops, it's absolutely essential to have the
ethernet feedback on the standard.... oops :)
