This is not an acceptable upgrade path that would be acceptable historically. Specially, we have effectively promised users that an X.Y world will work on an X+1.0 kernel for most of history. There are obvious exceptions to this, but we have never allowed ifconfig to be one of them (I broke it many years ago with my first attempt to add if_epoch to if_data and had to back that out). -- Brooks --r5Pyd7+fXNt84Ff3 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.11 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQFO8L0WXY6L6fI4GtQRArjHAKDix0K0bP6i8Qs2khJj0U8FKPHN2gCcD+YW 91RqsPLfBykDw5uW07oEeF4= =MH8F -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --r5Pyd7+fXNt84Ff3--
