Description of problem:
With the NetworkManager.conf dns=dnsmasq setting NetworkManager crashes after activating a OpenVPN tunnel.

The tunnel comes up and during the DNS configuration stage, NM seg-faults.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
NetworkManager-0.9.2-1.fc16.x86_64

How reproducible:
Every time.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Configure a Fedora 16 system using the Network Preference GUI for an OpenVPN tunnel.
2. Edit the /etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf file and set "dns=dnsmasq"
3. Activate the OpenVPN tunnel.
  
Actual results:
After the tunnel comes up NetworkManager crashes with a seg-fault.

Expected results:
A working OpenVPN tunnel.

Hmm, it looks like a crash because no nameservers are present in IP configuration.

Fixed in upstream git master:
