Not just that. 
I'm working on it. 
I was able to fix quite a bit of it. 
But the Token Ring stuff is 100% Linux only. 
 
I'll talk with uberlord about this and see what we can work out for it. 
 
Comment 4 Roy Marples (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-09-05 23:17:43 UTC
What needs to happen is the code made as portable as possible.

When this cannot happen, the relevant section (like token ring) needs to be
wrapped with #ifdef DTOKENRING so we can easily enable/disable that part with
compile time flags.

Seems like Roy suggests to use net-misc/dhcp rather, and that mostly works now.
