.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
Place a packet after a given packet in a list. The list locks are taken
and this function is atomic with respect to other list locked calls
.PP
Works even without knowing the list it is sitting on, which can be
handy at times. It also means that THE LIST MUST EXIST when you
unlink. Thus a list must have its contents unlinked before it is
destroyed.
