IIRC, no. but I'm really not sure.

No, it does not contain the "auto $INTERFACE":

$ cat /etc/network/interfaces
# /etc/network/interfaces -- configuration file for ifup(8), ifdown(8)
# For more sample entries take a look at /etc/network/interfaces.examples

# The loopback interface
# automatically added when upgrading
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

And it is the same as what I get from booting from the Live-CD.

$ grep ifup /etc/runlevel.conf
18      -       S               /etc/init.d/ifupdown-clean
36      -       S               /etc/init.d/ifupdown
39      -       -               /etc/init.d/ifupdown-scripts-zg2

Again, same as from the Live-CD, expect the extra ifupdown-scripts-zg2
line. 

rings any bells?
