Just adding the label is not enough. It will fix ifup, but ifdown is
still horribly broken.
ifdown still downs the whole interface do to the ip link set dev x
down line, it shouldn't be called on alias interfaces, but that is
beyond me at the moment. Also not sure if the tun up/down could use
this code also. The debian/testbuild file needs to be modified to pass
for these modifications
