understand the problem you're talking about.  It's not a 'bug', it's a
feature!  You need to use the hidden interface approach to have the
back 
end system not broadcast it's MAC for the virtual IP.
I know it... but..

1. hidden patch is not in the main linuk kernel stream.... why?
2. that "feature" makes linux to send non-RFC ARP Requests
3. what's the meaning of that "feature"? It seems to do more problems
that it solves.
