Where did the broadcast address go?

I've noticed that with the 2.2.x kernal that ifconfig no longer shows
a broadcast address for kiss ports (ax0 etc.) And while ifconfig acts
as if it sets it, nothing shows up.

Anyone know whats happened here? It's completely broken my
rip broadcasts from 'gated'.
