This does a couple of things:
1. Honors the comment by presotto, and removes
the access for ether stats in the old place.
2. Fixes the index for what's etherout and ethererr
the stats contain In Link Out, but stats thinks it has In Out Err...
3. does not put dead in the machine name when it does not
respond for a while
