Am I missing something or is this the only way to automatically bring
up a pair(4) patch?

find /etc -name '*.pair*' -print -exec cat {} \;
/etc/hostname.pair0
rdomain 0

group pair
lladdr 00:00:C0:44:44:00

group and lladdr is optional

inet 10.1.1.0/31
up
up is implied when setting inet/inet6

/etc/hostname.pair44
rdomain 44
group pair
patch pair0

this is the key line to "patch" those two together

lladdr 00:00:C0:44:00:44
inet 10.1.1.1/31
up
!ifconfig pair0 patch pair44

and the above would just do the same again as 'patch pair0'

!route -q -T 0 add -inet 44.31.83.0/24 10.1.1.1


So not much to reduce - yet that extra !ifconfig could be painful when
you start changing things inconsistently
