This has recently become mandatory. Yes, EEXISTS is an odd error to return in this case. [BTW: check your configs carefully, your netmasks inet 66.118.153.66 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 66.118.153.255 inet 66.118.153.201 netmask 0xff000000 broadcast 66.118.153.255 are screwed.] This PR can be closed.
