	I'm not, or at least not to the best of my knowledge.  OKay, now
I feel stupid...how do I disable proxyarp?  How do I know if I'm using it?
I just looked for a man page on proxyarp, and, of course, there isn't one.
There is the arp utility, but I'm not running that anywhere either.

	Is this a problem with my -current machine though, which I suspect,
or my -stable machine (where the PPP connection is initially made)
