Defaulting to ENABLE_IPROUTE2 would be a quick fix (and compared to
the openssl dependency, "ip" is tiny :-) - I hope polarssl gets blowfish
support "RSN", so the default).

I'll try to figure out how busybox's ifconfig wants to be called, and
prepare a patch for OpenVPN to handle that.

This would have to be a local patch in the package feed, as upstream
is unlikely to accept a special #ifdef for LINUX_BUSYBOX_IFCONFIG.
