>Description:

    Network clone interfaces should be created with ifconfig create
command, but an alias referenced in the manal is "ifconfig plumb".
Since "create" is a special case in the ifconfig sources, it had to be
trated out of the main command list array.  In that array, plumb is
referenced but not used.  In the special case, plumb is not referenced.

    (I would also change the ifconfig manual to reference the word
"clone" somewhere near the create option)

>How-To-Repeat:
	
	ifconfig gif0 plumb
