    The long delay is also present with sysvrc. It can be supressed by
just removing the "allow-hotplug" line, without replacing it by an
"auto" line, and relying on ifplugd or netplug to detect the presence of
the carrier and trigger the configuration of the interface. The delay is
suppressed because 'ifup -a' does not find any interface to bring up and
carrier to wait for; and then ifplugd/netplug brings them up only when
the carrier is detected. Dunno if simple-netaid can play the role of
ifplugd or netplug.
