Description Martijn Koster 2015-07-20 14:01:51 UTC 
I ran into a crash trying to run "ip addr list" in a docker container running busybox from https://registry.hub.docker.com/_/busybox/:

```
mak@trinity10:~$ docker run --publish-service srvC.net1.calico --name c-C -ti busybox:latest sh
/ # busybox 
BusyBox v1.22.1 (2014-05-22 23:22:11 UTC) multi-call binary.

I tried various versions: busybox:ubuntu-14.04, busybox:ubuntu-12.04, and busybox:buildroot-2013.08.1 all worked ok, busybox:buildroot-2014.02 failed.
