CSLIP has, historically, always reported compressed frames in the FIFO field,
and net-tools knew to look for them there. A few months ago I added the
`compressed' fields to /proc/net/dev and changed net-tools to use them instead
on systems where they exist. It looks like maybe the corresponding change to
the slip code didn't get merged from the CVS tree into Linus'. I'll take a
look.
