Christopher, No, it is assumed that EXTIF must *always* be specified.
A single interface setup would only have EXTIF defined. A dual interface setup would have both EXTIF and INTIF defined. The firewall, dnsmasq, and others make this assumption. Normally, for a single interface setup, DHCP and NTP services are provided by upstream servers. Is there a way to coax your environment into this model? Could you describe your setup a little more? If you only have a single interface, but need both external and internal networks, you could use VLANS="eth1.10", set EXTIF="eth1" and INTIF="eth1.10" with a managed VLAN switch.
