>From man hostname.if:

    Regular IPv4 network setup:
            inet [alias] addr netmask broadcast_addr options

The third argument after "inet" is the broadcast address.  You have
"mtu", which isn't one, hence the error.  Try adding "NONE" before
"mtu":

    inet 192.168.XXX.XXX 0xffffff00 NONE mtu 9018
