Yes, for most of them, but the issue is that...

... lib.sh isn't sourced at this point yet. `source
$lib_dir/sch_tbf_ets.sh' brings that in later in the file, so the bail
would need to be below that. But if it is, it won't run until after the
test, which is useless.

Maybe all it takes is to replace that `source qos_lib.sh' with
`NUM_NETIFS=0 source $lib_dir/lib.sh', as we do in in_ns(), but I'll
need to check.

That's why I proposed to do it myself, some of it is fiddly and having a
switch handy is going to be... um, handy.
