In case anyones' wondering...

I've been meaning to do this for a while. This is the first phase in making rc.d
networking more useful after system startup. I plan to add functionality like
being able to bring up and take down individual interfaces or classes of
interfaces. I also want to enhance aliases so that removing one from the list
doesn't mean you have to renumber them all.

Cheers.
