["Brennan Cleveland" <warriorspot@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Here is the problem with the 'route show' command:

Endless loops are encountered in the file route.c in the function char 
*netname(sa).  They occur in the two while() loops (approx. lines
524 and 534).  The value of 'mask' gets shifted to 0, and the exit 
conditions of these loops are never met.  This is the case on my 
192.168.0.0 network, I can't vouch for behavior of any other subnets.  A 
'fix' that worked temporarily is to change the exit conditons of both 
loops to be:
while(mask > 0).  This produced correct output for me.  

Can some who is more familiar with this code verify a correct fix for 
this?  I don't fully understand this section of the code at this point.

Finally, can we get rid of (comment out by default) the printf 
statements in compat.c?  They relly mess up the formatting of the output 
for route show and other things.. It might be a good idea if we start 
getting some users playing with our stack that they don't by default see 
this type of debugging output.
