It's not created by the system at bootup and must be created before running tspc. tspc will bring the interface up though. And I don't want programs trying to route to IPv6 destinations when the connection is down, so I destroy it. I could have chosen to create gif0 in a boot script and simply downed it in ppp.linkdown, but I've already chosen this method and it works basically the same. Nevertheless, either way it doesn't solve why nothing in either file is being executed.
