The rc system will do nothing with interfaces that don't pass the tests
I enumerated so if you don't have an ifconfig_<if> interface there won't
be any difference no matter how you set network_interfaces.  I'd be
rather supprised if bind did anything with interaces that weren't
configured with an address (or even up in the case of correctly
funtioning drivers).
