Bug #3166: ifconfig alias directive no longer working
http://bugs.dragonflybsd.org/issues/3166

* Author: aswell

----------------------------------------
After upgrading from 5.4 -> 5.4.1 an ifconfig directive long used in 
/etc/rc.conf no longer works.

ifconfig_xxx="DHCP"
ifconfig_xxx_alias0="link 00.11.22.33.44.55"

The alias link directive allows easily changing network cards on local machines 
which receive DHCP addresses based on mac address, without requiring changes to 
dhcpd.conf on router. However, after upgrading to 5.4.1 the directive no longer 
changes the mac address, causing machines to receive a different IP address 
from the router than what is expected by NSD and other machines on network.
