If the kernel changes are anything like the one I found in mrouted
(because my build exploded in map-mbone - so itojun isn't doing
anything like a test builf before commining) then you need to take
a much closer look at the code before changing it.

The code in mrouted was 110% safe.
I've changed it so that it is 120% safe - by removing the parameter
that you seemed to think needed its sized passed.

Interestingly that found a real buffer overrun error!
Which you clearly missed......
