vif-route does not currently work. It's OK for a single domU, but if I
start more domains, all the vifs get the same IP! Each vif would need
a separate IP for routing to work.
vif-route doesn't set up the route either.
So what would be a good scheme? 169.254.X.Y for vifX.Y?
A domain may get different vifs at different times, and a different IP
for the vif would interfere with using NFS root from dom0 (nfs_server
would be always different).
What about a vif_ip or similar option in the domain configuration file?
