Yes, and that's a valid argument in defense of interface enable/disable.
For example, routing daemons like quagga already have code to deal
with interface up/down notifications, and have historically had to
maintain special code to deal with the "address up/down" state.

What does quagga do with things like the duplicate status in BSD?
(ifconfig -a reports such things for addresses in BSD AFAIK.)

We don't use that.

Quagga uses its own indices to detect duplicateness (aka 'unnumbered' right? - the patches for which have not yet been integrated into Quagga proper).
