 Dear Maintainers,
 
 I want to report that the bug I described for NetBSD 9 in conjunction
 with VMWare ESXi running at my providers ( https://www.ionos.de ) place, is fixed now that I
 upgraded to NetBSD 10 RELEASE.

 You can see in the above output from:
 
 # netstat -i
 
 that the vmx0 network interfaces out packets are counted again, gkrellm
  (application from pkgsrc) now also shows the outgoing network traffic
 rate correctly.
 
 Thank you very much for your kind attention.
 
 Sincerely,
 
 Adrian Kiess
