I think it's just the way that ifup works.  I'm not entirely sure why
the line appears twice.

Aha.  That works fine.

So here is how to make it fail:

/sbin/modprobe forcedeth; \
/sbin/ip link set dev eth0 up

All subsequent runs of 'ethtool eth0' show:

Settings for eth0:
        Supports Wake-on: g
        Wake-on: d
        Link detected: no

regardless of how long I leave it.

So is this a driver problem or a problem with the way /sbin/ifup
works?

Tim.
