I tried booting a kernel built against Sunday's sup this evening, with very
odd results: my primary network interface on the sparc classic (le0, a
mixed media UTP or AUI, which I use UTP) did not come up (or possibly came
up and then went down) to the great confusion of a lot of daemons.

Logging in on the console as root and doing "ifconfig le0 up" made it all
happy.

This has never happened before. It is repeatable. Perhaps something got
overlooked in the bus-ification for Sbus of the drivers?

	perplexed,
