: : Hi Delphij,
: : =

: : Doesn't this break ABI gratuitously?  (I think it changes the size =
of
: : struct ifnet)
: =

: In head this is OK (it doean't break the size).  In -stable, it shoul=
d

Actually, I'm wrong.  It does break the size due to the 3 characters
of new padding...

: instead look like:
: =

: =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0char =A0 =A0 if_cspare[3];
: - =A0 =A0 =A0 void =A0 =A0*if_pspare[8];
: + =A0 =A0 =A0 void =A0 =A0*if_pspare[7];
: + =A0 =A0 =A0 struct sbuf=A0*if_description;
: =

: of course, in -head it could look that way too and not force a
: recompile of everything that groks ifnets...
