You're welcome.

Thanks. This fix should go in to -current shortly; it looks like 
rt_newmaddrmsg() does not check NULL pointers for situations where ifp 
has been nulled out.

Andre reported a problem with multi refcounting on an SMP machine. The 
ifma instances in that case are protocol, not link layer, ifma 
instances. I am currently investigating.

I think this may be related to the recent cardbus / pci / 
bus_alloc_resource changes.
