It seems the issue was that I had ifconfig_IF_alias0="1.2.3.4/32" instead of ifconfig_IF_alias0="inet 1.2.3.4/32" I know the setup should have been the second one from the beginning (at least the manpage gives something like this as an example), but the first one worked without problems. The problem is either that it (silently?) fails, or that it is not documented in UPDATING. Anyone with their hands there recently with an opinion about it?
