This is not a package review. This is more of a code review.

I'm not really a fan of the API:

extern int netdev_pathname_to_name (char *);

This modifies the data you pass to it, which is ugly. Something like:

extern int netdev_pathname_to_name (const char *name, char **ret);

would be better. (Or, just directly return the name, and NULL on failure,
setting errno appropriately.)

In the absence of kernel support, all /dev/net names throw errors. Passing it
the existing /dev/net/tun also errors.

It only checks for /dev/net as a prefix. You pass it /dev/foo, or " bar", or
other invalid device names... it returns them.
