I have three NetBSD machines networked in adhoc mode and they work just
fine.  (Ie. just like they were on the same Ethernet segment, just a bit
slower.)

(However, it seems that the machines with the Lucent cards are the only
ones that NTP can't keep in sync with a time server.  I'm now sure if
this is because of the Lucent cards (or the driver), but AFAICT, that's
the only thing these machines have in common and the only thing that
is different from the machines that NTP _can_ keep in sync).
