Are you sure that works as far back as SunOS 4.1.1?
/etc/hostname.le0 currently consists of the single word
pluto
and it looks as if this causes /etc/rc.boot to do
ifconfig le0 pluto netmask + -trailers up
(where the name pluto resolves to 192.168.200.1 via /etc/hosts).
If I were to change /etc/hostname.le0 to
pluto mtu 640
I think the ifconfig command would become
ifconfig le0 pluto mtu 640 netmask + -trailers up
and it doesn't look as if ifconfig recognizes mtu as a keyword
(at least while running -- granted I haven't tried actually
editing /etc/hostname.le0 and rebooting):
# ifconfig le0 pluto mtu 640
ifconfig: mtu: bad address
