Log: Followup to r362502: rc.conf(5): unobsolete gif_interfaces There are cases when gif_interfaces cannot be replaced with cloned_interfaces, such as tunnels with external IPv6 addresses and internal IPv4 or vice versa. Such configuration requires extra invocation of ifconfig(8) and supported with gif_interfaces only. Fix manual page and provide some examples.
