This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)
avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.
Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore. This update would have been
insane otherwise.
to TAILQs. Fix places which referenced these for no good reason
that I can see (the references remain, but were fixed to compile
again; they are still questionable).
assignment to avoid one bug and several pessimizations.
In the old version, gcc-2.6.3 (i386 version) generates 16 bytes
of static data and copies it using 4 4-byte load-stores. gcc-2.7.2
generates 2 1-byte stores and calls memset() to zero 14 bytes.
Linking fails because memset() doesn't exist in the kernel.
In both versions, the 2 bytes stored directly are all that is
actually used unless the null padding at the end is used, since
the 3 4-byte words in the middle are initialized again by struct
assignment. These words are misaligned. gcc generates misaligned
load-stores for (small) misaligned struct copies.

common labels for LINT. There are still some common declarations for the
!KERNEL case in tcp_debug.h and spx_debug.h. trpt depends on the ones in
tcp_debug.h.
to enable IP forwarding, use sysctl(8). Also did the same for IPX,
which involved inventing a completely new MIB from whole cloth (which
I may not quite have correct); be aware of this if you use IPX forwarding.
(The two should never have been controlled by the same option anyway.)
*' instead of caddr_t and it isn't optional (it never was). Most of the
netipx (and netns) pr_ctlinput functions abuse the second arg instead of
using the third arg but fixing this is beyond the scope of this round
of changes.
- don't #include other headers just to get struct names.
- don't use __BEGIN_DECLS/__END_DECLS for system prototypes. It is for
user prototypes.
- don't use extern.
- don't use lines longer than 80 columns.
- use alphabetical order.
- use tabs.
Uniformized idempotency ifdefs.

This is a bulk mport of Mike's IPX/SPX protocol stacks and all the
related gunf that goes with it..
it is not guaranteed to work 100% correctly at this time
but as we had several people trying to work on it
I figured it would be better to get it checked in so
they could all get teh same thing to work on..
Mikes been using it for a year or so
but on 2.0
more changes and stuff will be merged in from other developers now that this is in.
