Its been without the if_ prefix for a couple years :) However if enough
people's sense of propriety is offended I suppose I could change it.

As for adding it to the modules/Makefile, the main reason it was not
was that the users of 10G were very small, but that is changing so
I suppose its time to add it.  Will take care of that soon.
