It seems that vif=[ '' ] (e.g. anything) became required between 3.0.0 and
3.0.2-2. I would hazard a guess that it happened when the nics= config
parameter became deprecated. IMHO this should be considered a bug... and
the above should be considered the default, with vif=[] being used to turn
off networking...?
