Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: udev

My wifi interface is currently called "wlan0_rename", which indicates
that the interface renaming was only half-done.

This box was installed with gutsy, and upgraded to hardy every couple of
days.

$ dmesg |grep renamed
[   36.268975] udev: renamed network interface wmaster0 to eth1

indeed I do have eth1 as well:

eth1      Link encap:UNSPEC  Hardware Adresse

but it's pretty useless.
