When DHCP will be added will you re-evaluate the way you bring
interfaces up. Its currently a bit messy if you want to pass your own
addresses in the bootp record. The function build_bootp_record() is
not exported either. Also when you added loopback devices i was not
configuring them since you added init_loopback_interface() to
init_all_network_interfaces() which did't need to call when using
dynamic addresses.
