  Modified files:
    sys/netinet          ip_id.c 
  Log:
  Replace the random IP ID generation code we
  obtained from OpenBSD with an algorithm suggested
  by Amit Klein.  The OpenBSD algorithm has a few
  flaws; see Amit's paper for more information.
  
  For a description of how this algorithm works,
  please see the comments within the code.
  
  Note that this commit does not yet enable random IP ID
  generation by default.  There are still some concerns
  that doing so will adversely affect performance.
