I'm not sure what the question you're asking is.  You can do basically
anything (networking wise) with a UML that you can do with a physical host
-- so both IP addresses can be put on the same virtual interface with
interface aliases.  As far as getting it to the outside world, you've got
uml_switch, iptables, and Linux ethernet bridging to help you out, and there
isn't yet a networking topology I haven't been able to make with some
combination of those three.

I hope you've turned this off for posts to mailing lists -- it's unlikely
that all respondents to your question will even notice this.
