i'm not happy with using link1 for the purpose.
1 bit is not enough to specify a configuration mechanism.
IMO it should be able to be specified with a string like
"lacp" "static" etc.  (or probably with a plist with configuration
mechanism specific parameters like port priority etc.)

i'm not happy with using _lacp.c file for static configuration.
with static configuration, the lacp state machine should not run
in the first place.

DNH_DEBUG?

as your comment suggets, capability should be intersection of
underlying ports.  what's wrong with doing it in _portinit/portfini?
