--- Comment #13 from Jeremy Cooper <[email protected]> ---
I am reopening this because the main problem was the content of the message,
not problems about when it is displayed. As it stands, the current solution
still retains the CONFUSING wording.

I propose that the warning be changed ever so slightly so that the user can
tell

1. When it was generated (when net.fibs is adjusted)
2. That the warning is a reminder, not the detection of a problem.

Can you please address this? I suggested the following message:

               printf("%s adjusted to %d. REMINDER: "
                       "Adding ifaddrs to all fibs has been turned off "
                       "by default. Consider tuning %s if needed\n",
                       "net.fibs",
                       num_tables,
                       "net.add_addr_allfibs");
