I just built a pmax kernel from the latest sup source, with
the updated tcp_subr.c.

A DECstation 5000/150 crashes every time I try and open any TCP
connection to it.  (well, sof ar I've tried FTP and rlogin.)  The
kernel reports a bad address in kernel mode, fills the msgbuf with
attempts to traceback that error, and then wedges hard, requiring a
reset.

A kernel built yesterday works fine on the same machine, but has
horrendously low TCP throughput.

Has anyone tried or tested the latest TCP code on, say, a machine
requiring aligned addresses? Did it work?
