+	* ripd.c: (rip_update_interface) if connected->destination is NULL,
+	  get the broadcast address with ipv4_broadcast_addr()
+	* rip_interface.c: (rip_interface_multicast_set)
+	  connected->destination may be NULL. Improve message if
+	  setsockopt_multicast_ipv4 fails. Improve message if bind fails.
+	  (rip_request_interface_send) If connected->destination is NULL,
+	  get the broadcast address with ipv4_broadcast_addr().
+	  (if_valid_neighbor) Handle PtP subnet addressing properly.
+	  Speed up code by using prefix_match properly.
