No, that's how it originally worked, but in the current version of the
code, ignore-carrier means:
- You can activate a connection with purely static IP configuration
even when the device doesn't have carrier.
- If you lose carrier when a connection (static or dynamic) is active,
that connection won't be dropped.
But you can't activate a DHCP connection on an ignore-carrier device if
it doesn't have carrier.
