This is not necessary. None of the parameters contains spaces, so the
syntax is left regular and can easily be parsed in sh. I also do not
think that the newlines are necessary to separate tokens the form

ifconfig_tap0_aliases=" \
         inet6 2001:db8:8888:2::1/64 \
         inet6 2001:db8:9990-9999:3::1/64 \
         inet 10.8.1.1/24 \
         inet 10.8.0.1-10/24"

would be just fine.
