There's a small bug related to hardware UDP checksums in the hme  
ethernet card driver in NetBSD 3.1 (Including a recent cvs update of  
the netbsd-3 branch). Looking at the NetBSD cvsweb page, it was fixed  
2 years ago in MAIN (Revision 1.50 of sys/dev/ic/hme.c). So. What  
does it take to get something into a release?

It doesn't affect me; I was just really bored and curious and going  
through drivers for hardware on my Ultra 5 yesterday. It just seems  
odd that a bug fixed years ago is still in the current stable version.
