Oh, another alternative (with debian anyway, again), is to set up an
/etc/iftab file. The debian network hotplug script calls ifrename
before running ifup, so with that you can rename the interfaces to
something else, and then use the new names in the /etc/network/interfaces
file. In fact, i think i'll do that instead of using the mapping stanza,
as it feels a bit cleaner.
