>Description:
     
Programs using the SIOCGIFCONF command will not work correctly. 

NetBSD has solved this problem according to http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=dhcp-server&m=102165058427335&w=2
>How-To-Repeat:
Create 100 vlan interfaces.

Try to start ISC DHCP server using interface vlan50. 


>Fix:
Adopt the NetBSD way of interpreting the SIOCGIFCONF command if it's possible.
