On a recent armv7 Factory with linux-4.0.0,
I found this random warning:

rcwicked restart ; ping -n 192.168.12.1
PING 192.168.12.1 (192.168.12.1) 56(84) bytes of data.

According to
http://nslug.ns.ca/pipermail/nslug/2014-January/026056.html
the warning seems to be about a problem with kernels <2.4.9 

So either the warning should just be dropped, rephrased,
or we find out why it is occurring randomly even today.
