  Modified files:
    sbin/ifconfig        ifconfig.c 
  Log:
  Attempt to load the kernel module only if we are going to create a
  new interface.  In other cases loading the module is unwanted and
  can lead to ill side effects.  One such effect found is as follows:
  "kldunload if_foo" tells the module to kill all its interfaces,
  which results in messages sent to devd; the module unloads.  Then
  devd starts processing the messages, which ends up in a etc script
  running ifconfig fooX, which reloads the module.
