>Release:        FreeBSD 2.0-950412-SNAP i386
>Environment:

	FreeBSD 2.0-950412-SNAP, some PC with (dont laugh) 3C501 Ethernet
	card.

>Description:

	The kernel's bpf module panics when turning off promiscous mode
	on a 3C501 ethernet card (interface el0). The reason is a missing
	``break'' statement after the SIOCSIFFLAGS case in the big switch
	in el_ioctl() in i386/isa/if_el.c

>How-To-Repeat:

	> tcpdump -i el0
	tcpdump: listening on el0
	[..packet printout deleted..]
	^C

	panic: bpf: ifpromisc failed
	[..]

>Fix:
