That's right. They should also include the new codename.

I wrote a few lines for rc.sysinit and sent them to tpowa. It just
enabled lo with the default ifconfig line. If someone has lo in the
network settings, it will be enabled again, so no harm is done.

I think tpowa even included a check whether /sys/class/net/lo exists, so
there won't be an error message when you boot a kernel with network
disabled.
