It looks like fixing this would involve a change to in_broadcast() in
src/sys/netinet/in.c

I'm going to try ripping out the check and making sure things are
still happy. Assuming that works, I think the check should go either 

(a) under an #ifdef or 
(b) under the control of a sysctlable global variable.

Thoughts?
