[Bug 1294798] [NEW] Can't bring up manual interface

[Bryan Quigley]

Public bug reported:

iface eth0 inet manual
 address 10.0.2.15
 netmask 255.255.255.0

>From my reading of the interfaces man page, this should let the machine
come up with no eth0 and then let me run it via 'sudo ifup eth0'.  This
doesn't work.
