Reminder about reported problem in NetworkInterface.c

[Langer, Christoph]

Hi Doychin,

thanks for pointing me to this. I was already looking at that part of the code and know about some gaps. So I'll take this item and open a bug and work on integrating the proposed change.

I'll probably be able to start working on this next week. But before that my fix for Bug 8156521 has to be finished and pushed.

Best regards
Christoph
