D'arcy didn't say which version of NetBSD*.

I used to get these a lot back when I was running 1.1 on a SPARC**; we have a
lot of dual-homed hosts at work and I use host routes with explicit metric
weighting to make sure the dual-homed hosts connect to the other dual-homed
hosts over the CDDI/FDDI side instead of the Ethernet side.   When my system
would boot and get the host routes - including the routes saying here's how
to get to <address of dual-homed host which was NOT on the SPARC**'s subnet>,
I'd get these "arpresolve: can't allocate llinfo" errors.  Now I'm running
1.2.1 on it and I never see them anymore.
