Hello

struct ifreq {
           char    ifr_name[IFNAMSIZ];/* Interface name */
           union {
                   struct sockaddrifr_addr;
                   struct sockaddrifr_dstaddr;
                   struct sockaddrifr_broadaddr;
                   struct sockaddrifr_netmask;
                   struct sockaddrifr_hwaddr;

This looks like spaces forgotten between "sockaddr" and ifr_something.
Is it a bug? Or is it some elaborate language construct?

This is not for l-k but for mtk-manpages@gmx.net .

And to answer your question, there is a tabs line in the source
that puts the tabs at the wrong positions. Do a
  1,$s/sockaddr<tab>/sockaddr /

Thanks.  Now fixed in the netdevice.7 page.
