It actually doesn't call settle-dad.sh at all. The problem is that the
testsuite is running ifup with the --no-act option, and compares the
output of it to the expected output as written in
debian/testbuild-linux. Ifup only calls /lib/ifupdown/settle-dad.sh if
it exists and is executable, but that of course depends on the build
environment. The expected output was written with the assumption that
/lib/ifupdown/settle-dad.sh is already there. So I'll have to fix that.
