>Description:
	Setting netmask on interfaces behaves weirdly.
>How-To-Repeat:
	ifconfig int0 a.b.c.d netmask 0xffffff00
	ifconfig int0 alias a.b.c.e netmask 0xffffff00
	ifconfig int0 netmask 0xfffffff0
	- nothing changes, no error is printed -
	ifconfig int0 a.b.c.d netmask 0xfffffff0
	- a.b.c.d changes netmask, but it now becomes the alias, and
	  a.b.c.e becomes primary -
	ifconfig int0 a.b.c.e netmask 0xfffffff0
	- a.b.c.e changes netmask, and it flips back into becoming
	  an alias -
