Subject: bug in arp handling 2.6.20

scenario
Machine A
eth0 is plugged  into network.
192.168.1.201
eth0:1
192.168.1.2

Machine B
eth1 is plugged into network.
192.168.1.101
eth0 is not plugged into network. so I can test locally before  
switching the wire.
192.168.1.201
eth0:1
192.168.1.2

arp request for 192.168.1.2 is responded to by eth1 on machine B.  
That seems buggy to me. worse, it continues to do it after  
unconfiguring eth0:1 and eth0.
