There are places where an interface will not have a mac address, and netcf
returns this as a NULL pointer rather than a pointer to an empty string.
Rather than checking for this all over the place in libvirt, just save it
in the virInterface object as an empty string.

   ACK that sounds reasonnable to me.
I assume the inverted situation of an interface known only by it's MAC
can't happen, right ?


I believe that is correct - name is a required attribute, but mac address isn't.
