The #ifdef IPXIP in netipx/ipx_if.h is OK (used from ipx_usrreq.c and
ifconfig.c only).
I also fixed a typo IPXTUNNEL -> IPTUNNEL (and #ifdef'ed out the code
inside, as it never could have compiled - doh.)
socket addresses in mbufs. (Socket buffers are the one exception.) A number
of kernel APIs needed to get fixed in order to make this happen. Also,
fix three protocol families which kept PCBs in mbufs to not malloc them
instead. Delete some old compatibility cruft while we're at it, and add
some new routines in the in_cksum family.
Use the MAC address of an interface for the host part of an IPX address
and not the MAC address of the first interface for every IPX address.
This is more inline with the way others like Novell do it.

Take out the error messages (the ip icmp equivalent) with #ifdef IPXERRORMSGS.
This is bogus and as far as I could figure out IPX don't have anything like
it. This is a leftover from its XNS heritage. If nobody complains, I will
take it out completely in a few weeks.
Add some more ipxstat statistics counters.
Make ipxprintfs a sysctl variable and off by default.
Add IPX Netbios "routing" support. This is off by default and can be
switched on with a sysctl knob.
General code cleanup to at least use the same style throughout the IPX
code, but also be more style(9) conformant. Also make a lot of functions
static.
If I don't get any complaints I'll bring all of this over to the 2.2 tree
in a few weeks.
This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)
avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.
Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore. This update would have been
insane otherwise.
to TAILQs. Fix places which referenced these for no good reason
that I can see (the references remain, but were fixed to compile
again; they are still questionable).
assignment to avoid one bug and several pessimizations.
In the old version, gcc-2.6.3 (i386 version) generates 16 bytes
of static data and copies it using 4 4-byte load-stores. gcc-2.7.2
generates 2 1-byte stores and calls memset() to zero 14 bytes.
Linking fails because memset() doesn't exist in the kernel.
In both versions, the 2 bytes stored directly are all that is
actually used unless the null padding at the end is used, since
the 3 4-byte words in the middle are initialized again by struct
assignment. These words are misaligned. gcc generates misaligned
load-stores for (small) misaligned struct copies.

This is a bulk mport of Mike's IPX/SPX protocol stacks and all the
related gunf that goes with it..
it is not guaranteed to work 100% correctly at this time
but as we had several people trying to work on it
I figured it would be better to get it checked in so
they could all get teh same thing to work on..
Mikes been using it for a year or so
but on 2.0
more changes and stuff will be merged in from other developers now that this is in.
