Fixed that bug, unless you mean unloading it while wunning ipmon (which I
hear will cause a panic but that's also an OS issue).

Let me explain that a bit more.  Under SunOS4 if I "modload if_ipl.o" then
run "ipmon", background it. "modunload -i <ipfilter>", go back to "ipmon"
and ^C that, SunOS4 panics.

Under FreeBSD 2.1.5, that doesn't happen, but under newer versions of
FreeBSD I am told it does.
