It is pretty nasty to allow for changes to nsaddr_list, but I'll see
what I can do. The patch is starting to get ugly though. It might be
helpful if I know how to detect changes. I have trouble finding the
union and EXT, I guess I'm demonstrating my incompetence.
I'll sort it out somehow, but if you feel like explaining in more
detail that would help.
Hope I'm not bothering you guys too much,
Stig
