You are wrong. If you take a look at IPAddr from 2.0.7 you can seet this code:

  IFCMD="$FINDIF $ipaddr/$netmask_bits/$iface_base/$broadcast"
  NICINFO=`$IFCMD`

  rc=$?
  if [ $? -eq 0 ]; then
      netmask_text=`echo "$NICINFO" | cut -f2`

          CMD="$IFCONFIG $iface $ipaddr $netmask_text $broadcast"
          ;;


It does not exist in the current CVS version. And script doesn't work
correctly because ifconfig under Linux wants regular netmask not cidr.

Does every OS support the "regular" netmask?
