Though why one would be trying to auto-configure multiple interfaces  
is a mystery yet to be solved. If they're all up, you have other  
decisions to make such as, "do I route packets? who for? which way? do  
I apply NAT rules, or do I allow both networks see each other?"

Best to leave ZeroConf "broken" IMHO.
