There is a MNP binding and the driver does not work. It sets everything up 
right but doesn't transmit or receive properly.

I figured out why my original approach wasn't working and why it works if I 
don't switch to exclusive.  I can now switch to exclusive and have things still 
working, just fixing up the patch now, I'll finish it on Monday and send it 
out.  Thanks,
