Here's some more background information, as requested by a private responder:

# netstat -rn -f inet
Routing tables

Internet:
Destination        Gateway            Flags    Refs      Use  Netif Expire
default	           15.0.71.254        UGSc     0         0    pcn0
15.0.64/21         link#1             UC       2         0    pcn0
15.0.64.12         link#1             UHRLW    0         12   pcn0       9
15.0.71.254        link#1             UHLW     1         0    pcn0
127.0.0.1          127.0.0.1          UH       0         0     lo0

I don't know where the 15.0.64.12 route came from.  It might be the IP
address of a DHCP server.  I was using dhclient to configure the interface
initially but it would always time out, leaving the interface "UP" but
configured with 0.0.0.0 address.

Rebooting the system without configuring the network interface resulted
in the same routing table except without the 15.0.64.12 entry.

Thanks,
