Subject: [ANNOUNCE] iproute2 2.6.11-050330

An updated version of the iproute2 utilities is available at:
http://developer.osdl.org/dev/iproute2/download/iproute2-2.6.11-050330.tar.gz

It supports the latest features from 2.6, but is backwards compatiable
with 2.4.

This update includes several bugfixes and build clean from
the previous version (2.6.11-050314):

[Jamal Hadi Salim]
* Proper verison of iptables headers (from 1.3.1)
* Set revision file in m_ipt
* Fix action_util naming in mirred
* don't call ll_init_map in mirred

[Thomas Graf]

* Warn about wildcard deletions and provide IFA_ADDRESS upon
deletions to enforce prefix length validation for IPv4.
* Fix netlink message alignment when the last routing attribute added
has a data length not aligned to RTA_ALIGNTO.

[Masahide NAKAMURA]

* ipv6 xfrm allocspi and monitor support.

[Stephen Hemminger]
* include/linux/netfilter_ipv4/ip_tables.h dont include compiler.h
because it isn't needed and not on all systems
* Update rtnetlink.h and pkt_cls.h to be stripped versions
of headers from 2.6.12-rc1
* switch to stack for netem tables
* add -force option to batch mode
* handle midline comments in batch mode
* sum per cpu fields in lnstat correctly
