Using built-in specs.
Target: amd64-undermydesk-freebsd
Configured with: FreeBSD/amd64 system compiler
Thread model: posix
gcc version 4.2.1 20070831 patched [FreeBSD]

My rc.conf:

vlans_em2="10 20"
ifconfig_em2_10="<some_ip>"
ifconfig_em2_20_ipv6="<some_v6_ip>"
ifconfig_em2="up"

1.3.10 doesn't crash, but BGP sessions don't set up.
