I looked into it shortly, the last comment is correct.

Both of you, I'd like to point your attention towards
 https://mailman.archlinux.org/pipermail/arch-projects/2011-December/002254.html
if you haven't merged it already (the patch is also on my github).

Now, we need to make one of you the maintainer of the official netcfg
tree on al.org. I don't know which one of you, so you two fight it out
and tell us the result. Or, anyone else on this list, choose. I don't
care, as long as I don't have to decide.
