I believe you use a deprecated (~10 years ago ?) way to setup your
tunnel, its not a linux-3.0 new behavior.

sit0 is reserved (fall back tunnel), you should use a different name.

Try :

# ip tunnel add aster mode sit local 216.111.203.89 remote 209.51.18.1 ttl 255
# ifconfig aster up

# ip tunnel
sit0: ipv6/ip  remote any  local any  ttl 64  nopmtudisc
aster: ipv6/ip  remote 209.51.18.1  local 216.111.203.89  ttl 255
