4. Technical Description
This fasttrack is seeking patch binding. I'm filing it closed approved,
automatic, as it is a minor update to an already approved architecture
that has not yet been made public.

In the testing of the interfaces introduced with PSARC/2008/219 and
later updated by PSARC/2008/335, it became clear that one particular
pair of functions could not be used in a meaingful manner as introduced.

The changes marked below are relative to the updated spec from PSARC/2008/335.

A final copy of the spec has been placed in PSARC/2008/219 named
"final_spec.txt".  An "old_spec.txt" and "new_spec.txt" file are present
in this case's directory.


In Appendix B.5, replace:
| net_instance_notify_register(net_handle_t, hook_notify_fn_t, void *)

with:
| net_instance_notify_register(netid_t, hook_notify_fn_t, void *)

and
| net_instance_notify_unregister(net_handle_t, hook_notify_fn_t)

with
| net_instance_notify_unregister(netid_t, hook_notify_fn_t)
