When I use ifconfig 1.39 (1999-03-18) linked against libc5 on 2.3.99-pre6,
and try lo:1 down, both lo and lo:1 are gone too.
I still had serveral version here, compiled them, and this is what I get:
1.432 (1.29 (1997-09-23)) good
1.46 (1.35 (1998-08-29)) good, but doesn't show lo:1 when it's up
1.47 (1.36 (1998-10-31)) bad
1.51 (1.39 (1999-03-18)) bad
Don't have, and cound't find anything between 1.432 and 1.46
1.55 didn't compile
