Yeah, it's a great bug, isn't it - doesn't just change the routing table
but changes the 'ip route ...' entry in the config.

Depending on the FDDI card you get (is it the translational bridging
one?) you'll probably need to change your software too.  You may need to
upgrade the microcode on everything on your cBus and even exchange some
of your cards.  Your supplier should know but may not!  Let me know if
you want details.
