I should also have noted that:

1. all of the opal_ifxxx functions still have their "no-op" versions when
struct sockaddr_in is not present.

2. we still "lazy discover" interfaces, so the new opal_if framework is
-not- opened unless you call one of the opal_ifxxx functions and get a
non-no-op version

So I believe RS will be protected, so long as it fails the "have struct
sockaddr_in" test. I'm pretty sure that is the protection used currently, so
nothing should have changed in that regard.
