I think we can't use the loopback interface because test06 fails if 
invoked with lo:

[root@kholmanskikh stas]# /sbin/ifconfig lo:1 1.2.3.4 netmask 
255.255.255.0 up
[root@kholmanskikh stas]# /sbin/ip maddr add 66:66:00:00:00:66 dev lo:1
ioctl: Invalid argument

[root@kholmanskikh stas]# /sbin/ifconfig eth0:1 3.4.5.6 netmask 
255.255.255.0 up
[root@kholmanskikh stas]# /sbin/ip maddr add 66:66:00:00:00:66 dev eth0:1
[root@kholmanskikh stas]#
