Sigh.  I've just deleted the commit from the repository because I didn't 
notice that the NetBSD ifconfig.c file gained an extra copyright over the 
entire file by the person who included the ifmedia support (and they 
complained)

Double sigh, now I'm going to have to start again from scratch.. :-(
