..I know, ipup _is_ buggy, my hint was more on Red Hats somewhat 
sloppy QA attitude.  I mean, if I should _not_ use RH9 to route 
traffic, I would like to know _that_ from the docs.

..does Mandrake or Debian turn their rear end onto _whoever_ like RH-9
does in https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=89171 ???
