after some reflection overnight, i think a minor workaround would be
to have in /lib/udev/ifplugd.agent a check to see if '-M' is in the
$ARGS and if it is to *not* try to kill the ifplugd instance. for now
however i am just commenting out the kill:

            remove|unregister)
                debug_mesg Stopping $DAEMON_NAME for $INTERFACE

                # kill a running ifplugd daemon
                # NO!  DO NOT PERMIT THIS TO HAPPEN!
                # let ifplugd exit on its own
                #exec $DAEMON -k -i $INTERFACE

but this really is not the solution.  really, ifplugd should not be so
aggressive as to try to kill itself off without first letting it
complete the running of the "down" actions.
