I removed all interfaces except lo from /etc/network/interfaces.
Bringing up lo still runs my firewall script... weird.  I have not
tested bringing up eth1 (ethernet) again yet with NM, but the
wireless manager still uses wlan0_rename, and still does not run the
firewall script.

Since the "udev: rename wmaster0 to eth2" hangs for 20 seconds or so
at boot time, and both eth2 and wlan0_rename show up in ifconfig,
could this be a bug with iwl3945 or with udev?  If the interface
were properly renamed, would NM be able to run the script?
