Hello, It seems that: 1) if I assign an IP address to an interface 2) get an arp mapping via this interface 3) remove the IP address from the interface
arp fails to remove this arp entry when arp -d is used

This is from a few days old -current. I just noticed this somehow strange behavior, but I don't really know if it's old or new.
