Patch by Chris Hanson <cph@martigny.ai.mit.edu>. First appeared in Debian
package 1.3b1-6.
From https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=39922:
wmifs crashes with a cryptic X error message when there are more than
4 net devices. This occurs for me because I install vmware, which
installs 4 network devices for its bridging hack.
The bug is a loop that fills a fixed-length array, but doesn't stop
when the array is full. The fix is to add a conditional break to the
loop. A patch appears below.
I made two additional changes: (1) increased the size of the array,
and (2) changed a name comparison to compare all of the characters of
the name, rather than just the visible characters, since there may be
multiple net devices with the same first 4 characters (vmware does
this, too).
