I've just committed the following change to /etc/pccard_ether.  I think
it's the right solution, but I'm concerned it may cause problems with
drivers that incorrectly frob the IFF_UP flag themselves.  If so it may
be nessicary to revert this change temporarily or at least not MFC it.

  Log:
  Be less IPv4 centric.  When checking if the interface is already
  configured, check if the UP flag is set instead of checking for the
  netmask keyword.
