 Here is a patch that fixes this problem (it also fixes the problem for
 address families besides "ether").  I'm not sure if the method used is the
 best approach for "ether", but it does at least match some other usage
 within ifconfig.  Unfortunately I don't seem to be able to attach patches
 correctly for GNATS, so here's a link:
