			==== fixing if_de.c ====
			On my SLiRP builds, I've noticed that the interface just generates errors, but it should work. It was easier to 'fix' the BSD device driver...

			So in the derecv procedure apply the following fix:

			<pre>
			/* check for errors */
			if(1==2){
			/** if ((rp->r_flags & (RFLG_ERRS\|RFLG_FRAM\|RFLG_OFLO\|RFLG_CRC)) \|\|
			(rp->r_flags&(RFLG_STP\|RFLG_ENP)) != (RFLG_STP\|RFLG_ENP) \|\|
			(rp->r_lenerr & (RERR_BUFL\|RERR_UBTO\|RERR_NCHN)) \|\|
			len < ETHERMIN \|\| len > ETHERMTU) {
			***/
			</pre>
