Synopsis: VmWare port + NIS causes "broadcast storm"

State-Changed-Why: 

Thanks for the bug report and patches. Item 3 has been committed
to -stable now (the problem was not present in -current). Your patch
for problem 2 (if_tap.c) is probably not necessary, and other network
drivers can get into similar states too, so keeping the changes in
userland is better.

May I close this report now? Maybe you would like to suggest a patch
for ypbind to make it sleep for a while after before repeating the
clnt_broadcast operation if it fails?
