Do you use a value other than AUTO for network_interfaces?

Maybe I am wrong, setting network_interfaces is the way I found I had to 
use to be able to rename cloned interfaces.

eg:

network_interfaces="lo0 em0 dmz"
ifconfig_em0="up"
cloned_interfaces="vlan0"

ifconfig_vlan0_name="dmz"
ifconfig_dmz="192.168.34.129/24 vlan 2 vlandev em0"

I seem to remember I had to put that 'dmz' in network_interfaces, to 
make everything happy at boot. I can do more tests if needed.

Ciao,
Angelo.
