I've got very used to an alias ns='netstat -f inet' which lets me do all
the things I like to do without annoying me with stuff I don't want to
see. All the options that don't care about the address family just ignore
that option. Or, used to.
Recently that changed, and "netstat -f inet -i" in particular changed to
give the -f flag priority over the -i flag. This makes no sense to me,
so I intend to commit this patch:

It removes the special case that specifically makes "netstat -f inet -i"
act the opposite to the way it used to (and the way I expect).
Any problems, folks? Is there some bizarre IPv6 impact I've not seen?
Hmm, I've just noticed some small misalignment of column headings in the
default output. I'll fix that too.
Stephen.
