wlan0 is sure *supposed* to be up.

It's brought up by the OS.  Shorewall's controlled by systemd.  The systemd 
unit waits for network-online.

Should I have SW manually check, and bring down/up the interface?

I'm know there was "a very good reason".  I just can't find it in my notes :-/

Anyway I read now that 

"USE_DEFAULT_RT is now the default and use of USE_DEFAULT_RT=No is deprecated."

So I'll get that fixed.

Strange.  I never saw this until after that update.  Since it causes a FAIL, I 
figure I would have noticed otherwise.
