Hi, I have a fix for this:

In
https://github.com/mono/mono/blob/master/mcs/class/System/System.Net.NetworkInformation/NetworkInterface.cs

in MacOsNetworkInterface.ImplGetAllNetworkInterfaces (currently at line 484)

replace

Array.Copy (sockaddrdl.sdl_data, sockaddrdl.sdl_alen, macAddress, 0,
macAddress.Length);

with

Array.Copy (sockaddrdl.sdl_data, sockaddrdl.sdl_alen, macAddress, 0, Math.Min
(macAddress.Length, sockaddrdl.sdl_data.Length - sockaddrdl.sdl_alen));

This throws no errors and retrieves the same network interfaces on my Leopard
(10.5.8) as ifconfig.

I am submitting this fix under the MIT license. Sorry for this "format" but I
don't have time for a patch file right now. If it's a problem I'll try sending
one later.

Any chance this can enter Mono 2.10?
