Probably do-able, but I still like the idea of either working, albeit
one would be faster than the other.

At the moment I have a temporary work-around:  Fit an unused bare
ethernet plug into the motherboard socket, to block the hole.  I don't
want to permanently disable it, in case it needs to be used.  And it's
inconveniently placed to try and tape over it (one of those backplanes
with combination ethernet and USB jacks all jammed close together).

If you ever need the nic, just go back and change dhcpd.conf and restart the service
