I suppose I could fix those first and then later change the type, but I
think having a "compare_ether_addr" function that returns *false* when
they *match* would be rather confusing. I'd rather have
"equal_ether_addr()" that returns *true* when they match.

I guess we could introduce equal_ether_addr() though and slowly convert,
keeping compare_ether_addr() as a sort of wrapper around it.

Indeed, this is one way to proceed.

perhaps is_equal_ether_addr or is_same_ether_addr instead?
