Thanks. That looks normal, although what I was really looking for was 
the carrier / link status; I forgot this isn't provided by Linux 
ifconfig output, and mii-tool is needed instead (it must be run as root, 
via su or sudo) :-

# mii-tool eth1
eth1: negotiated 100baseTx-FD, link ok

Is a cable connected to this interface when you start XORP?

Are you able to apply and test the patch which Heiko provided?

That looks like it should solve the problem -- I have encountered this 
MFEA issue before and I believe there is a Bugzilla entry for it already:
    http://bugzilla.xorp.org/show_bug.cgi?id=560

thanks,
