bsdar/netstat issue

[Maxim Ianoglo]

Hello,

i just was able myself to find out why netstat was showing different output
on i386.

My i386 machine was updated on 28 November, netstat was modified on 25 November, so seems that 
CVS server from which I have updated sources was a little bit outdated.

Thank you.
