in vl.c, it looks like tap_open is called with an uninitialized ifname -=20
instead of ifname[0] =3D=3D '\0', or a valid ifname, it is a bunch of gibbe=
rish -=20
in my=20
case, "=FF=FF=FF=FF=FF=FF=FF=FF=FF=FF=FF=FF=FF=FF=FF=FF=FF=FF=FF=FF=FF=FF=
=FF=FF=FF=FF=FF=FF=FF=FF=FF=FF=FF=FF=FF=FF=FF=FF=FF=FF=FF=FF=FF=FF=FF=FF=FF=
=FF=FF=FF=FF=FF=FF=FF=FF=FF=FF=FF=FF=FF=FF=FF=FF=FF=FF=FF=FF=FF=FF=FF=FF=FF"

I'm not all that great with gdbg yet, so it might take me a while to figure=
=20
out where the bad call to tap_open is coming from...
