Nope, that didn't fix it. I still get the following message on start
up:

ifconfig: ioctl (SIOCAIFADDR): File exists

And the same complaint about "Cannot assign requested address..."

I verified that the SIOCAIFADDR fix that was discussed about a year
ago was in place.  Strange.

Any suggestions on how I can track this bug down?
