 This means you can give an interface any name up to 15 characters
 (IFNAMSIZ-1) with a command like:
 
 ifconfig xl0 name wired
 
 I've been using this one in /etc/rc.early on my laptop to test the
 renaming code.  You can rename an interface at any time, but there
 are likely to be edge cases in userland programs that don't like the
 interface name changing under them.  In most cases, this is a bug in the
 program.
 
 There are also programs that assume interface names are fairly short
 (4-5 characters including the unit).  Nothing has been done to address
 this issue.
 
 Please report edge cases to me and the -net list.
