ibmveth gcc 3.5 issues

[Santiago Leon]

Anton,

Testing your patch I found that there was a mistake in the old code...
I'm attaching a patch with your changes plus a small correction (the
check for 0x2 should be only for the lower 2 bits of the MSB)...

I have tested this patch, so merge it in if you want...

Santi
