_Excellent_! I've not been working with Fedoras, didn't know how new
the bonding driver there was. Propogating promisc from the bond0
interface down to the underlying eth* NICs was adding since I last
played with it, and it sounds like they've cleaned up the whinging
from ifenslave on unnumbered interfaces.

Thanks for the followup. This is such nice news.
