Package: kernel-image-2.6.9-1-686
Version: 2.6.9-3
Kernel module ipip does not has the `used' mark, even if it's necessary.
As result, user(root) can rmmod it, while ipip tunnels still exists, so
ifconfig crashes.
On the other hand, 2.4.x kernels marks ipip module as used:
Here is the transcript:

ipip 7072 1 (autoclean)
~# rmmod ipip
ipip: Device or resource busy
