I have two fddi cards in and there don't seem to be any complaints.
I made trivial kernel config modifications: I added

	pseudo-device fddi

and lines

	device dfa0
	device dfa1

I happen to be out of IP addresses and the hubs are locked away where I 
can't get to them, so I won't know before tomorrow if this works.
