[New-bugs-announce] [issue9678] uuid._ifconfig_getnode can't work on NetBSD

[Takayuki SHIMIZUKAWA]

New submission from Takayuki SHIMIZUKAWA <shimizukawa at gmail.com>:

uuid.getnode() not work correctly on NetBSD5, then uuid.getnode() return random value per Python interpreter instance.
This problem is caused by the uuid._ifconfig_getnode() not supporting a 'ifconfig' / 'arp' output format of NetBSD.

I create a patch for this problem and attached.
