	Do multiply gateways work with TCP_BSD 3.1?  If one of the gateways
goes down, should the users notice or will they continue to work on the next
available gateway?

	Also, we have been having trouble with our gateways getting corrupted
routing tables.  It looks as if it decideds that it is a gateway to everything
in /etc/networks!  Needless to say, this has caused some problems.  Another
problems with this is that the bogus routing information doesn't seem to go
away very easily.  Normally I would suspect that some other system was sending
out bad routing information since we've seen this problem a few years ago, but
that problem affected all of our systems, as this time it looks like it is only
a problem for the Apollo nodes.
