SIOCSIFADDR & neighbour table overflow

["Michael K. O'Brien" <mobrien@pixar.com>]

Hola~

I try to keep up with unstable (I run apt-get dist-upgrade about once a week).
Anyway, after a power failure, my machine is not in a happy state.

Trying to run ifconfig I receive:

    % ifconfig lo 127.0.0.1
    SIOCSIFADDR: Bad file descriptor
    lo: unknown interface: Bad file descriptor

Running "ifconfig -a" lists "lo" as a valid interface.

I'm using the 3c59x driver. Which, for loopback, I wouldn't think would
matter.

Anyway, has anyone having problems?
