You might call me ignorant, but with bash this can be done a bit simpler (this is from my solution to the detect-if-kable-present-while-booting-problem) :-)

#!/bin/bash

while sleep 1; do
    for i in /sys/class/net/eth*; do 
        VAR=$(basename $i)
        VAL=$(sed -n 's/0/UN/p' $i/carrier)PLUGGED
        if [ "${!VAR}" != "$VAL" ]; then
            echo $VAR $VAL
            declare $VAR=$VAL
        fi
    done
done
