Looks like it's already implicitly supported, e.g. to configure 192.168.42.0/31 (.0 local; .1 remote), invoke ifconfig something like this: ifconfig <dev> 192.168.42.0 -broadcast pointopoint 192.168.42.1 If it were important, I suppose ifconfig etc cold be hacked upon to behave like this when confronted with a 31-bit mask. Urgh, thinking a bit further, it might pay to double-check what linux does about arp on pointopoint i/fs -vs- what RFC3021 requires.
