Since this is now in our public API, I'm wondering whether we shouldn't
make the buflen longer. 6 bytes is fine with wired ethernet, but I'm
not sure its sufficient for all network device types in general.
eg, my wmaster0 device has a rather longer hardware address
wmaster0 Link encap:UNSPEC HWaddr 00-13-02-B9-F9-D3-F4-1F-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00
UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1
RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000
RX bytes:0 (0.0 b) TX bytes:0 (0.0 b)
Regards,
Daniel
