Oh I know that, but calling 16 bits swapping macros on a 32 bits field is a bit dodgy... might work in this case, I'll verify, but you may end up with the wrong half of the 32 bits word being used :) Ben. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
