It turns out that I was wrong on this count - it is in fact the link up
command that fails.

I tried this before but it fails because ifup seems to issue two commands
of its own choosing before it runs the up commands:
root:/bin# ifup tun6to4
ip tunnel add tun6to4 mode sit remote any
ip link set tun6to4 up
SIOCGIFFLAGS: No such device
Unfortunately it hasn't got round to changing the local address by the time
it tries to set the link up so it doesn't work :( At least I assume that's
what is causing the problem :(
