i appreciate your concern and i am happy to work with affected users on
a solution to this that reduces POLA for 15.0-RELEASE but let's be clear
that this is not "all" vm-bhyve and jail setups.  it is only setups
which are mis-configured in a very specific way which has been
deprecated in the Handbook for (as far as i know) a long time.

are you happy with the change i proposed to ifconfig(8) in another
message?
