Much better now.

The busy wait loop is now gone.

Thanks !

Going to guess that ppp0 doesn't have a carrier status OR IFF_RUNNING set? The attached patch should reduce the log spam, let me know how it works out.
Errm, this patch should do better!

Well, less spam, but still
    - busy wait (repeated count goes up to ~300k)
Sep 28 23:50:05 Andromeda dhcpcd[1101]: ppp0: unknown carrier
Sep 28 23:50:05 Andromeda dhcpcd[1101]: ppp0: carrier_status:

Yes, these messages are being triggerd by a flurry of routing messages.
This is probably a bug in NetBSD somewhere and the attached patch
should pretty much silence the warnings down to one n dhcpcd until the
link actually comes up.

So the flurry of messages is triggered by dhcpcd still (thanks jmcneill!).
This patch should fix it and all should now be well.
