Hi!

> why do I need CONFIG_INET for CONFIG_BRIDGE?

It is clearly bug. But I'm afraid this bug SHOULD NOT be fixed in
2.0.X series. Try 2.1.X, if bug is there, correct it.

Easiest solution is to turn on CONFIG_INET. Right solution is to look
at 2.1.66, and if it contains bug... NO! Networking is under heavy
rewrite. Go for latest CVS tree, and if bug is in there, report.
