:	Yes, a lot of code in NIC code is duplicated.  Something like
:	net/lib or net/common is the way to go for such things. Some
:	research and looking around needs to be done about it.

:	Matt, it would be really appreciated if you can do this

:	other stuff.

:	Btw, if this mail looks screwed, blame my mail editor. 8-) 8-)

    All right, but I am going to have to turn off commit privs for a few
    hours so I can dup the repo, make the modifications in the copy, test the
    copy, and then sync it back.  There is going to be some work involved
    rewiring the Makefiles.

    Say, this afternoon from 1:00 p.m. to 3:00 p.m., possibly a little longer.
