This means that configure will fail if ifconfig is not installed but
want_ifconfig was set.  Are you certain enough that FreeBSD is likely to
have ifconfig by default, and thus not hit this failure except on
extremely unlikely configurations?

But I think it looks simple enough, with minimal risk of causing grief
on non-BSD systems (the configure check is guarded, so IFCONFIG_PATH is
likely to be unset on other platforms).  ACK and pushed.
