static ARP entry bug?

[Emmanuel Dreyfus <manu%netbsd.org@localhost>]

Hi

I posted the message below to tech-net, but furthuer
testing showed that this problem happens only on a xen domU.

Hello

It seems that NetBSD 5.0 is not able to get a static arp
eentry anymore:

I pick up an entry in my ARP table and delete it before 
adding it with arp -s, and I get a log from the kernel:
arp_rtrequest: bad gateway value

Since I used an arp entry that was already in the table, 
I am quite confident that the host is indeed reachable on 
that interface.

Is this a known problem? How am I supposed to add a 
static ARP entry in NetBSD 5.0?
