lots of buffers, out of buffer space.

[Kevin A. Pieckiel]

This is my netstat -m output:
142/352/6016 mbufs in use (current/peak/max):
        131 mbufs allocated to data
        11 mbufs allocated to packet headers
81/160/1504 mbuf clusters in use (current/peak/max)
408 Kbytes allocated to network (9% of mb_map in use)
0 requests for memory denied
0 requests for memory delayed
0 calls to protocol drain routines

I try to ping a network connection and get this:
ping: sendto: No buffer space available
ping: sendto: No buffer space available
ping: sendto: No buffer space available
ping: sendto: No buffer space available

I see NOTHING wrong with my buffer space.  The newsgroups all say that
increasing mbufs or nmbclusters or whatever will fix this error.  It does
not.  What am I missing?  Right now, I do not specify values for nmbclusters
or related settings in my kernel config.
