Probably yes (it works), but why first /sbin/ifconfig, issued by uid!=0
triggers dhclient ?

I think behavior should be consistent, either rc.d/netif relay only on
devd events and does not depends on network_interfaces= or rc.d/netif
should relay on network_interfaces= and ignore not mentioned interfaces.

Also devd's IFUP event should not depend on user's /bin/ifconfig issued
(or not issued) by hands.
