    sys/netipx           ipx.h 
  Log:
  Back out ipx.h:1.18, which introduced a Linux API compatibility field in
  the ipx_net data structure.  Doing so introduced a stronger alignment
  requirement for the address structure, which in turn propagated into
  other dependent data structures, which turns out not to be suported by
  the available IPX source code.  As a result, a number of user space
  applications, such as IPX routing components, failed to operate
  correctly.
