Yes, route add -net 127.0.0.0 is also not needed. From memory, ifconfig 
requires the route add -net lines if you are running a 2.0.x kernel (I
think). However, the 

[ "${GATEWAY}" ] && route add default gw ${GATEWAY} metric 1 

line is required (if you put your computer on a network with a gateway
anyway).
