My fault, your first instinct was the right one.  I wasn't running the
kernel version I thought I was.  Uname didn't give me enough info to see
that, but I noticed that lilo.conf wasn't set up the way I had expected
it, so it was still booting with the out-of-the-box Debian kernel.

IP is working now.

I'm planning to submit a wishlist item to Debian for a default kernel
that supports iproute2, unless someone has beat me to it.

Thanks alot for your help,
