	Yes, while compiling code also derived from the Berkeley
networking distribution I found the following:

The hundreds (i.e., every mtod construct) of internal compiler errors
from 6.00 were reduced to dozens in 6.00A.

All but one (!) of the remaining internal errors went away with
default optimization (== no -O switch at all).

The remaining error could be eliminated with -Od.

However, the resulting driver crashed immediately suggesting that
there might be some code generation errors as well...  Perhaps
6.1 will improve the situation.
