I have no idea if it cleanly merges but if you're feeling brave you could
grab https://github.com/puppetlabs/facter/pull/267 and see if that
magically does the right thing for F17.  It uses /sbin/ip in preference to
ifconfig, so it should work a lot better.  I couldn't get it merged so it's
just sat and gotten a little stale but hopefully does 99% of what you need
still if you can merge it for testing.
