This bug is on my critical path for getting my network entirely swapped over to 5.3 (b/c it breaks transparent proxying and other nifty games). Could I beg Andre or someone to commit a fix that restores the old behavior? (Barring that, has anyone patched it in their own system, and if so, would you mind sending me the patch? I dislike running custom kernel code on these machines, but I'm happy to do so to get things working. :) Many thanks, -Dave (please CC:; I'm not subscribed to freebsd-net) -- Dave Andersen dga at cs dot cmu.edu Assistant Professor 412.268.3064 Carnegie Mellon University http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~dga
