Trying to stay on top of things (for a change).

New version of iproute2 utilities that includes bug fixes and
support for all the new features in kernel 2.6.29.

      Fix memory leak in local options

      Breakage noticed when debian upgraded to xtables (iptables > 1.4.1)

Stephen Hemminger (7):
      fix uninitialized memory in tc_skbedit
      Add missing limits.h
      Add DHCP as routing protocol

Some build failures here:

gcc -D_GNU_SOURCE -O2 -Wstrict-prototypes -Wall -I../include -DRESOLVE_HOSTNAMES -DLIBDIR=\"/usr/lib/\"   -c -o link_gre.o link_gre.c
In file included from link_gre.c:15:
../include/linux/if_tunnel.h:33: error: field ‘iph’ has incomplete type
link_gre.c: In function ‘gre_parse_opt’:
link_gre.c:136: warning: implicit declaration of function ‘__constant_htons’

I seem to remember messing with the kernel headers in this
area recently... yes, indeed:

    net: Fix userland breakage wrt. linux/if_tunnel.h
    
    Reported by Andrew Walrond <andrew@walrond.org>
    
    Changeset c19e654ddbe3831252f61e76a74d661e1a755530
    ("gre: Add netlink interface") added an include
    of linux/ip.h to linux/if_tunnel.h
    
    We can't really let that get exposed to userspace
    because this conflicts with types defined in netinet/ip.h
    which userland is almost certainly going to have included
    either explicitly or implicitly.
    
    So guard this include with a __KERNEL__ ifdef.
