Hmm, I don't understand what's going on then, since setting
net.interface to the name is the third thing it does in that function.

The sysfs_path there looks sketchy, but it could just be brokenness in

You could try doing "call hal_device_print (d)" in the debugger at that
point to see if the property was actually set.
