Hmmm, have several PC routers with ex drivers that run 1.5 or 1.6. Can
upgrade the 1.5 machines to 1.6 over time, but like these machine on a
stable branch. Can test a -current kernel, but would like to know if
fixes for the bogons will be pulled up to 1.6 and/or 1.5? Don't mind
waiting a bit for that, but would like to know.

Thanks,
