Done. Aliases moved to lo0. No change - instant crash of portmap when I
try run passwd(1). (same as before)

Remove aliases from lo0, so now system is like this (output from
ifconfig -a):

ed0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
	inet 196.7.18.129 netmask 0xfffffff0 broadcast 196.7.18.143
	ether 00:00:c0:08:50:16 
lp0: flags=8810<POINTOPOINT,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
tun0: flags=8010<POINTOPOINT,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
ppp0: flags=8010<POINTOPOINT,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
lo0: flags=8049<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 16384
	inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 0xff000000 

...Still breaks, same way - portmap instant death.

:-(
