Hi Kyle,
	Thank you for this revert. This change fixed the FreeBSD test suite runs, which are once again green after this change. A number of tests which use ifconfig were failing because they couldn’t configure interfaces: https://ci.freebsd.org/job/FreeBSD-head-amd64-test/11134/testReport/ . 
Cheers!
