Hi All,

It seems hurd is sending link local traffic (169.254/16) to it's
default gateway in violation of RFC 3927.

Since I have less than a day's experience with Hurd it's possible
(likely?) I flubbed the config somehow, so asking here rather than
going direct to bug report.

I'm working with the Debian/Hurd qemu image and the extent of my
network config has been:

dhclient /dev/eth0

(I'm running under open stack which puts some metadata I'd like to get
to on a web server at http://169.254.169.254 I can live without it but
I'd like to be able to get at it...)

Thanks,
-Jon
