weirdness in netconfig.c

[David Huggins-Daines <dhuggins@linuxcare.com>]

Two questions:

1) Why does netconfig.c have its own implementations of inet_ntoa(),
   inet_aton(), and friends?  This doesn't make any sense at all, but
   since the reimplementations have *exactly* the same interface as
   the libc functions, it seems like there is some good reason for it.

2) Why does configure_network() free and NULL host and netinterface
   after it finishes?  host, at least, should persist between times
   the user selects "configure the network".
