I'm not quite sure, but suspect this is related to wake-on-lan, which is a topic I do not really understand. If I am not mistaken, for wake-on-lan to work the interfaces need to be up or down, depending on the interface drivers, and there is no way to know which is which. Any default and change in default setting for the network during shutdown will then break some existing working wake-on-lan setup. I might be mistaken, but do not dare to change any of this without a seriuos investigation, and I do not have any spare time to spend on it. If anyone know more about this, please provide information and patches.
