Oh, that's right, I tend to forget about that because it's not
sufficient for my purposes, because you can't specify anything but
simple IPv4-with-netmask, and I'm interested in commands like "inet6
2610:.... prefixlen 96".  (I also added rcvars to specify pre- and
post-config commands for an interface, but that's got nothing to do
with aliases.)
