Hmm, this is funny. There was a user on sparclinux list complaining
that ISC 2.0pl3 does not work off Solaris x86, I suggested him to use
plain ISC 2.0 and never heard from him even since.

I asked both David and that other guy to send me tcpdump -x -s 1500 -n
output, but got no reply from any one of them. One is left to wonder
what was the reason for their postings if they do not follow up.
