A new version of the iproute2 utilities is available to handle the new
extensions for 2.6.7.
	* Based on the last known good version of iproute2 from Alexy
	* Included most of the vendor patches (except for the stupid ones).
	* Got rid of lots of the glibc workarounds,  I intend this to build
	  and run on 2.6 (and 2.4) only.
	* Fixed some parsing and formatting bugs.
	* Added gigabit as a rate.
	* Added HTB and delay scheduler
	* Added support for new tcp_info extensions to ss

and the download is in:

This version builds with 2.6.7 as the kernel include files, so either have
the files in /usr/include/linux up to date or modify the top level Makefile
to point to a kernel build.  Will workout a way to build on 2.4 next.
