I can confirm this fixes the segfault.

Do note, though, that the IP-swapping feature we've been discussing is
still broken. Test case:

- eth0 is metric 200
- wlan0 is metric 300
- set eth0 up --> eth0 gets 10.10.10.100
- set wlan0 up --> wlan0 gets nothing
- unplug eth0 --> wlan0 gets reassigned 10.10.10.100
- plug eth0 --> eth0 gets nothing

Not giving the IP back to eth0 is problematic, since eth0 has the
lower metric. More generally, the other approach we've discussed on
this thread -- of giving both interfaces the address simultaneous so
that the ordinary metric in the routing table can handle things -- is
much preferable.

Regards,
Jason
