Just to throw something out there in case this is helpful.
I found out recently that SIOCSIFFLAGS is somewhat deprecated...
Currently some of the features set/cleared with SIFFLAGS are reference
counted, which makes a clean set/unset implementation impractical. I
found this out the hard way, when Mandrake's security scanner -- which
checks promisc and other flags -- suddenly started going whacko in 2.4.x
kernels.
