Precise Alternate CD comes with netcfg 1.68 (netcfg_1.68ubuntu14_amd64.udeb) and this version of netcfg writes out two iface entries for eth0 when it has dhcp/dhcp6 assigned or SLAAC assigned global IPv6 addresses (write_interface.c).

The ifblacklist_migrate.sh only disables the first entry because of the dhcp tag, and doesn't disable the second, so we end up with an unmanaged NIC according to NetworkManager and no IPv4 address.
