This patch for the current version of rc-scripts (1.4.3.10) adds support for
static ARP table entries and routes (both IPv4 and IPv6). ARP entries are set
via /etc/ethers and routes via /etc/conf.d/net.<dev>.routes.

If you were to ask me, I think we should close this bug. The static routes part is no longer relevant and static ARP table entries can be added in a postup() function.

OK, I'm marking this as fixed since the problems described here have been solved.
