The change was made in rev 1.25 of in.c:
revision 1.25
date: 1996/09/09 20:17:24; author: wollman; state: Exp; lines: +2 -2
branches: 1.25.4;
Set subnetsarelocal to false. In a classless world, the other case
is almost never useful. (This is only a quick hack; someone should
go back and delete the entire subnetsarelocal==1 code path.)
This is the same revision that went into FreeBSD 2.2, so the problem
should not exist there.
