        Makes sense now.  Thanks!  But how do I define the IP addresses
for these interfaces?  I see the source doesn't have any hidden ip address
options to this, and in fact, doesn't appear to set any ip address at all
(although I was just looking in parse.c and install.c).  And I'm only on
2.1.0p1.
