I searched for a core file, but didn't find one.  Any suggestions for how I can 
help
debug this if it happens again?  It may be completely unrelated to your 
changes; although
I haven't seen any crashes in 'netifd' in quite some time.

I've reverted to the previous 'netifd' for now, but I will try it again 
tomorrow evening
when I get home from work to see if it crashes again.
