[c-nsp] weird arp cache on 3750

This seemed strange to me.  I transitioned management on this 3750 yesterday
from vlan 1 to 4000.  I simply shutdown vlan 1 and left old IP address on
vlan 1 interface.  This seems to have caused a problem later on.  Yesterday,
I was able to manage the 3750 fine over vlan 4000 svi, but last night 3750
rebooted during a power outage (I'm not so sure that the reboot had much to
do with it other than a clearing of arp caches and revealing a strange
behavior, but I'm not sure).  When I came in this morning I couldn't get
into 3750.  I found a strange arp entry pointing to the def gw 10.101.7.1
out "vlan 1 pv 4000".. What in the world is that?!  it wasn't able to get it
to work correctly until I removed the ip address off of vlan 1 (but vlan 1
svi was shutdown the whole time), then things were restored.  Anyone know
anything about this?
