Brian,
Thanks for the reply. Restating in my own words, I think you are saying
that on a point-to-point frame-relay interface, mapping IP addresses is
not needed for frame-relay (and TCP/IP) to communicate across the link.
What you say seems logical and it's good that IOS has some common sense.
;-)
However, I'm still a bit puzzled on the output of "show frame-relay map"
which says "active" - does this mean that inverse-arp is active, in
spite of having disabled it on the other end. Or maybe that's my
misinterpretation of the output?

r5#show frame-relay map
Serial1.1 (up): point-to-point dlci, dlci 503(0x1F7,0x7C70), broadcast
status defined, active
r5#
