Any?  Does that include lo0?

I think we might be better off avoiding having IP tunneling depend on
milestone/network.  Besides being just plain confusing (tunnels aren't
themselves part of the network?), I think we have a way now to make
the dependency itself unnecessary.

I continue to be confused by milestone/network, though.  It seems to
mean something in a few special cases (such as when you have a
statically configured interface on your system), but likely has
indeterminate meaning otherwise.
