Synopsis: rc.conf scripts don't create vlan interfaces

State-Changed-From-To: open->feedback

State-Changed-When: Tue Jul 25 11:12:18 UTC 2006
State-Changed-Why: 
There is an rc.conf variable named "cloned_interfaces" that
should list all network interfaces to create.  That is,
you also need the following line in your rc.conf:

cloned_interfaces="vlan0"

This approach has proved more reliable than scanning all shell
variable names for the ^ifconfig_ pattern.

I believe that cloned_interfaces is documented on rc.conf(5).

May I close this PR now?
