The current client IPX support thanks to Boris is alive and runs very well
on CURRENT. But to make it really interesting, the if_ef driver, which
enable the use of multiple ethernet frame types on the same wire, must be
imported into -CURRENT as well.

It would be nice to have it into 4.0 as without it, the IPX client support
is quite limited.

I've been running it for weeks now without any problem.

I agree that the naming of the interfaces could be better but it works.
