ifupdown and kfreebsd

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

Dear all,

it is of course commendable that "ifupdown" has been taught
to use slightly more of our native tools, but it is still doing
things wrong beyond the trivial:

   route -n

is not supported by the FreeBSD utility.

With IPv6, ifup issues

   ifconfig bge0 add 2001:my::1234/64

which is completly useless with our user land, since

   ifconfig bge0 inet6 2001:my::1234/64 add

is the correct form. It is now help that "ifup" implements
correct calls to "/lib/freebsd/route" since "/sbin/ifconfig"
fails of the above reason. My original wrappers were clearly
removed prematurely.

Best regards,
