and implement a far more subtle and correct fix.
The reason behind the infinite loop was that ppp was trying to make up
initial IPv6 numbers and wasn't giving up when it failed unexpectedly to
assign the addresses it just fabricated to it's interface (thinking that
the reason was because another interface was using the same address).
It now attempts this up to 100 times before just failing and trying to
muddle along (in reality, this should never happen more than a couple
of times unless our random number generator doesn't work).
Also, when IPv6 is not available, don't even try to assign the IPv6
interface address in the first place...
gets rid of the duplicated code in compute_stats().
Add a new DSM_SKIP statistic type for devstat_compute_statistics() that
causes the subsequent variable argument to be skipped.
Thanks to Sergey Osokin for coding up my idea/code fragment.

When rtld runs the .fini section in a shared lib (C++), the code in
question from .../contrib/gdb/config/alpha/crtbegin.asm first calls
__do_globals_dtors_aux and then __do_frame_takedown. Unfortunately, the
value of gp after a jsr is undefined and in this case had changed from before
the call, probably as a result of calling code in some other shared library.
The normal calling convention for alpha is to re-initialize gp using
'ldgp gp,0(ra)' after a jsr instruction but in this case no such
re-initialization is done. This leads to a bogus value being read for the
address of __do_frame_takedown and a quick segfault.

socket option for the Unix domain. It's weaker than the
socket option (this only returns the uid and gid, while the
socket opt. can return the entire group list), and is
implemented mostly for compatibility with OpenBSD.
`struct xucred` with the credentials of the connected peer.
Obviously this only works (and makes sense) on SOCK_STREAM
sockets. This works for both the connect(2) and listen(2)
callers.
There is precise documentation of the semantics in unix(4).

.Op. None of the other manual pages do it when discussing options in
the main text, so this one shouldn't, either. Also, use .Pq instead
of another odd constructhyphenation isn't an issue here, since it's
desireable to have the contents of that digression appear together,
and it's already in another macro, anyway).
