I do not understand this. How is not our bug? I have a problem that
the LinkQualityMult is used based on the IP and not the interface. And
this line tells from where in the configuration it gets the
LinkQualityMult. And it does it by IP address. It should do it by
interface.

I checked (at least in 0.5.3, and now I am checking repository
version) in the code and the entry->if_name is set in add_link_entry
at line 547 (link_set.c) at "if (local_if->int_name)". But local_if
has int_name set through many calls (update_link_entry,
olsr_hello_tap, olsr_input_hello, parse_packet) in olsr_input at line
438 (parser.c) at "if ((olsr_in_if = if_ifwithsock(fd)) == NULL)".

Maybe I do not undserstand what are those new changes you are making
but I hope LinkQualityMult will stay? Or there will be something
equivalent?
