Is it always 256? Do you have any appletalk routes configured?
If so, is the 256 dependand on the number of routes?
I'm asking because:
ddp.c: for (nodect = 0; nodect < 256; nodect++) {
ddp.c: for (nodect = 0; nodect < 256; nodect++) {
However, I have not checked if this could be invovled at all.

Your system is not fully reliable with and without the patch so
it doesn't matter at all. ;->
