ifdown and /proc/net/dev

[Mats Erik Andersson <mats.andersson@gisladisker.se>]

Hello there,

it seems to me that the linux-ism in /proc/net/dev is the
cause for a dozen errors from "ifdown" at shutdown. The
complaints are non-existent interface names. The explanation
is that "/proc/net/dev" mentions "eth0", while the correct
interface is "bge0", and the like, in GNU/kFreeBSD.

Is this situation being remedied in some manner?

Best regards,
