That code can be compiled in two different ways.
If TUNTAP_TAP is not defined when IP will set IFF_POINTOPOINT based on 
the dl_info_ack.

If TUNTAP_TAP is defined then tun.c sets the broadcast address length to 
non-zero i.e., IP will set IFF_BROADCAST.

Thus I think what is in dl_info_ack is sufficient to make this work AFAIU.
