i386
>Description:
If I have fxp0 as 192.168.0.x/24, netstat -rn -f inet shows this route as

192.168		link#1 ...

which makes you think it is a /16.
>How-To-Repeat:
`ifconfig fxp0 192.168.0.1 netmask 255.255.255.0; netstat -rn -f inet'
>Fix:
netstat needs to report netmasks explicitly, and expand the destination
IP to at least the prefix length (if not all 4 octets).

eg:

192.168.0/24	link#1	...

or

192.168.0.0/24	link#1	...
