Problem exists between keyboard and chair.
The reason why ifconfig complains is that you're assigning a point-to-point 
address to an ethernet interface and both addresses have the same 
point-to-point address.

This is how you add ips to an interface:
ifconfig xl0 192.168.1.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 # this is the primary
ifconfig xl0 add 192.168.1.254 netmask 255.255.255.255 # All extra addresses 
within the same subnet MUST have netmask 0xffffffff or 255.255.255.255 to 
prevent routing problems.
