Thank you all for patching these programs.
I scanned through your patches and they all look fine.=20
Each one that I read through seems to be simple fix, which=20
is what I hoped for.
Again, just to emphasize the points I made in my previous
emails, the code that retrieves the ARP table by means
of sysctl() does not have to check for the RTF_LLINFO
entries in the returned list because the retrieved
entries all belong to the ARP table. For those programs=20
that retrieve the routing table through the routing socket
interface, the code that bypasses RTF_LLINFO entries can=20
also be eliminated because the routing table does not
contain any L2 information.=20

net/openospfd is also affected. Attached is the simple patch to take
into account the withdrawal of RTF_LLINFO. Perhaps something else
should be done -- I'll up some -CURRENT systems and will try to test the
Real Stuff (TM).
