Hmm - that is used by some openvpn setups.. I don't know if it's still
relevant but the openvpn pkg-readme says

: OpenVPN normally re-creates the tun/tap interface at startup.
: This has been reported to cause problems with some PF configurations
: (especially with queueing), if you run into problems with this then
: OpenVPN should be started from the hostname.* file, e.g.:
: 
: # cat << EOF > /etc/hostname.tun0
: up
: !/usr/local/sbin/openvpn --daemon \
:     --config /etc/openvpn/server.conf
: EOF
: 
: (Or use hostname.tap0 for a layer-2 connection).
