To be honest: I don't know, or more like: I don't know if it treats the 
issue completely. From my limited ability to read code I suppose it 
adjusts the netmask upon receiving the addresses from the peer? I 
thought it would be good to fix the man pages to include the proper mask 
in the examples, since point-to-point links generally should have a mask 
of 0xffffffff, right? Maybe both places (driver and man pages) should 
get a look. I really can't comment on the code.
