Subject: Appletalk broken in NetBSD 1.4.2?

More info:

What does not work for me is that my nbprgstr operations all
fail when my macppc machine comes up on an existing network with
no router.

Searching the archives, I find mention of enabling routing, but
I ended up backing off to a 1.4.1 kernel, and that seems to fix it.

I noticed this in the change list for 1.4.2...

>sys/net/if.c					1.51

Looks suspicious to me.  Mine looks like it's not one of the "more"
configs. ;->

Ideas?
