There is a bug report filed on it. A user's request to the maintainer was not only denied, but the maintainer acted like an ass. Looks like the proper way now is: ifdown <interface>; ifup <interface>, one interface at a time.
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=565187 It would be nice if it gave output similar to: W: The "upgrade" command is deprecated; use "safe-upgrade" instead. Basically, support for restarting all interfaces was dropped, without notice (as far as I can tell), and without documentation. This shouldn't be a big deal as long as its documented prior to release.
