>How-To-Repeat:
	ifconfig ze0 192.216.222.226
	ping 192.216.222.227
	ifconfig ze0 down
	ifconfig ze0 delete 192.216.222.226
	arp -a

	Arp entry not deleted.

>Fix:

	I'd say that's a bug.  You should file a bug report in case somebody
	is looking for something to do.  It looks like it should be
	straightforward to add - when arp_rtrequest() gets a RTM_DELETE for
	something that looks like an interface route, it should go through and
	delete any applicable arp entries.
