I take it back. I was led to believe things were working in the past. In
fact, the difference is that F20 refuses to do the ping whereas earlier
versions complained and then fell back to pinging from the interface
address.
F20: # ping -I eth3:sub1 172.17.30.1
ping: SO_BINDTODEVICE: Invalid argument
F14: # ping -I eth3:sub1 172.17.30.1
Warning: cannot bind to specified iface, falling back: No such device
PING 172.17.30.1 (172.17.30.1) from 172.17.30.161 eth3:sub1:
64 bytes from ...
Sorry for the confusion.
