System: NetBSD lola-granola 1.1B NetBSD 1.1B (LOLA) #8: Fri Apr 19 11:03:57 EDT 1996 mycroft@zygorthian-space-raiders:/afs/sipb.mit.edu/project/netbsd/dev/current-source/build/i386_nbsd1/sys/arch/i386/compile/LOLA i386


>Description:
	
	The ether_* functions from ethers(3), specifically ether_ntoa
	lack prototypes. The only include file referenced in ethers(3)
	is <netinet/if_ether.h>, which does not prototype them (nor
	would it be appropriate for it to do so).


>How-To-Repeat:
	
	Attempt to compile code that uses ether_ntoa with gcc -Wall. A
	similar problem can be seen with rarpd.

>Fix:

	Abstract a new place for these prototypes. Perhaps <arpa/ether.h>
	to go along with <arpa/inet.h>?
