I have heard rumors that sending IP packets with the Route Record
option enabled causes machines based on the 4.2BSD TCP/IP code to
dereference a null pointer. This is rumored to cause some machines to
panic.
Does anyone know if this is true? If I were developing a product and
planning to use Route Record, would I need to be able to disable this
feature to avoid problems with 4.2BSD-based hosts?
