    Aw come on guys! Give me a hint here! I can't even find this
    mysterious PR that was allegedly filed! Since you don't know the number,
    how about just giving me the information directly? Are you going to
    describe the failure to me at all or am I supposed to hack into the
    orbital mind control lasers or something? Did you run tcpdump on it
    to see if it's receiving/sending traffic (tcpdump -n -e -i rl0)?
    Does it have a link (ifconfig rl0)? Is it not being detected at
    all!?

    The _same_ problem!? He didn't even describe what the problem was!

    If you don't tell me how it's broken, I can't tell you how to fix
    it. :(
