 Another approach that could be used here would be to filter the
 output of "set" using while/read/case, e.g something like
 
 set | (while read alias; do
 	alias=${alias%%=*}
 	case "$alias" in
 	ifconfig_${ifn}_alias*)
 		eval ifconfig_args=\$$alias
 		ifconfig ${ifn} ${ifconfig_args} alias
 		eval showstat_$ifn=1
 		;;
 	esac
 done)
