Description:
Running the 2.0 agent on Mac OS X 10.5 (with debug turned off) I get:

How to repeat:
Run the agent.

In r560 and above we don't complain about a failed get_config() anymore. 

... = 6 means "No such device" which is specific for MacOS X as this is a virtual interface.

Tested with agent 0.7.0r647. The failures do not come up anymore.
