Todd Lyons wanted us to know:

Not that I'm impatient :-), but I tried it and it's working (actually,
it's not crashing, which could be the same thing) :-)
I have a question about the man page description though:
NOARPCTL COMMANDS
add Adds a new Virtual IP to the list. Requires two
arguments: the VIP is the address to hide, the Real
IP (RIP) is a real address of this host to use when
ARP query are made that would use VIP.
I must be misunderstanding something very basic. I thought you didn't
want real servers to arp at all for VIPs, no matter what interface the
arp comes in on and no matter what interface is defined with the
matching address. The only acceptable arp answer is for the RIP
(implying local traffic or traffic that is not desired to be load
balanced). But the above man page contradicts my ideas. So I'm a bit
confused as to how exactly noarp is working.
