ok, tried this, sort of, i think. short answer: no joy.

that is, 

- i pulled and built the latest ocaml-tuntap, producing tunctl.native.
- i ran "sudo ./tunctl.native add tap0 ; sudo ./tunctl.native inet tap0 
10.0.0.2"
- i ran "make run" in mirage-www

...and i still get the same results, i.e., i see the outgoing SYN on lo getting 
a RST in response. i also see pings to 10.0.0.2 being received on and replied 
to via lo. i tried creating tap1 with address 10.0.0.3 which worked fine, but 
same results -- trying to get packets (eg., ping) to 10.0.0.3 causes them to be 
visible on lo and not on tap1.

or am i missing something obvious?
