 Although, the patch is for the pre-rc.d network configuration script,
 the behavior is the same in rc.d. Having, said that, I believe the is
 a completely unnecessary hack. You should convert your script to an rc.d
 script. Then, you don't have to use the kludge of specifying a "bogus"
 network interface to get the rc(8) system to run your scripts for you.
 
 Cheers.
