Should have been able to get that myself, but for some reason it just
went right by me (just like the '#ed0 le0' line in the default
dhcpd.interfaces file did). Time to stop trusting Google implicitly.

I've gotten a couple of offlist replies which suggest I'm at least on
the right track with this part, but making three mistakes (one in
hostname.ral0, one in pf, and one in dhcpd.interfaces). I'll be able to
try what I think are 'fixes' later this evening.
