:At complete random, i had a look at ppp(8) and found my set ifaddr line
:quite wrong:
:set ifaddr 213.41.166.51 10.0.0.2 255.255.255.0 0.0.0.0
:After fixing that to:
:set ifaddr 213.41.166.51 62.4.16.246 255.255.255.255 213.41.166.51
:i no longer see panics, even in the 100% reproductible case (single-user
:mode), and my route tables are ok. ppp properly adds default routes (i
:have a native ipv6 link, thanks Nerim!), though it still warns about the
:"ff02::" route entry, which i'll investigate later on.

This is going to be hard to find without a dump. I know there are
definitely issues related to the default route and also issues with IPV6.
That particular panic occurs if a route table request succeeds on cpu #0
but then fails on cpu #1's route table, indicating a synchronization
issue between the replicated route tables.
