You've hit the ifupdown limitation over which I've been fight with aj quite a bit long time ago: ifupdown doesn't allow two lines in a stanza to start with the same word. This is buried deep in the manpage and admittedly not very hard to find: ifupdown does not allow two option lines in /etc/network/interfaces to start with the same word. To work around this limitation, multiple test (or guessnet) lines can have different numerals suffixed to their initial keywords (test1, test2, or guessnet1, guessnet2, and so on).
