This is exactly what this bug is about. I installed my system three
days ago, on 2007-01-16, using the daily build netinst.iso and I
did not create /etc/networks myself. My IP is static if you want
to reproduce it (so I said no to DHCP etc).

See the "base-installer" script in the netcfg source package:
#!/bin/sh -e
# Copy all relevant networking-related files to /target.
for file in /etc/network/interfaces /etc/networks /etc/hostname
/etc/resolv.conf /etc/hosts; do
if [ -f "$file" ]; then
mkdir /target/$(dirname $file) -p
cp $file /target/$file
fi
done
and also function netcfg_write_static() in static.c:
if ((fp = file_open(NETWORKS_FILE, "w"))) {
fprintf(fp, "localnet %s\n", inet_ntop (AF_INET, &network, ptr1, sizeof
(ptr1)));
fclose(fp);
} [...]
