s/*nix/Linux/, and even there, it's not always installed by default.

I would agree that openvpn should use iproute2 by default on Linux,
and the option should be renamed to --disable-iproute2 to get back
to the old-style ifconfig/route style behaviour.
Currently, iproute2-or-not is a linux thing, so this would not have an
effect on any *BSD (no iproute2) or Solaris (I'm not sure right now
whether OpenSolaris has it, can't check). Solaris buildbot is on my
roadmap... so I can look into this as soon as The Big Merge is done.
