Configuring radvd with a renamed interfaces like eth[A-Z][a-Z]* doesn't work.

2. configure radvd to use ethAuth


Actual Results:  
version 0.9.1 started
syntax error in /etc/radvd.conf, line 10: A
error parsing or activating the config file: /etc/radvd.conf

Expected Results:  
Working radvd

It seems to work with "ethauth"

Can you reproduce it with net-misc/radvd-1.0-r1 ?

It seems that the error is with any capital letter - can you verify this?

Re-open if you can reproduce this with 1.0-r1, thanks
