    sys/netipx           ipx.h 
  Log:
  Merge ipx.h:1.21 from HEAD to RELENG_5:
  
    Back out ipx.h:1.18, which introduced a Linux API compatibility field in
    the ipx_net data structure.  Doing so introduced a stronger alignment
    requirement for the address structure, which in turn propagated into
    other dependent data structures, which turns out not to be suported by
    the available IPX source code.  As a result, a number of user space
    applications, such as IPX routing components, failed to operate
    correctly.
  
    RELENG_5_3 candidate?
