Hello's in broadcast network are multicast. Problem is solved now for
me, btw. It appears to be bug in e100 driver in 2.4.x.
I can't reproduce it any more with e100 development driver (from
http://sf.net/projects/e1000/). And I can't it reproduce it with
forcing network to non-broadcast either (in this case unicast hello's
are sent).
So it's multicast problem with e100 2.x driver.
