Yeah, Self-NAK.  I'm sorry, you're right. I had myself convinced it didn't
really matter in the use-cases, but looking back over it, I'm not sure what I
was thinking.  I need to implement IP_ADD_STATS (currently it doesn't exist),
and replace all the use cases in this patch.  Simple enough.  I'll repost in the
AM. 

Thanks for the whack with the clue stick :)
