Here's a patch against my tree (and will probably apply somewhat clean to official SVN)
that might fix your problem.

Compile tested only..seems VRRP is the only user, and it is broken anyway, so I don't
have a good way to actually test the code...

You can find my tree at:
http://www.candelatech.com/oss/xorp-ct.html

If this works for you, I'll commit it, unless someone sees problems with it.

Thanks,
Ben
