Additional information. Network Tools has a status panel for each

wlan0:avahi, everything had a value -- even the hardware address!
However, the values were not related to my network (eg., wrong IP
address) and when I clicked on Configure, it said "Interface does not
exist".

I'm puzzled.

I am mostly, too, but aiui avahi is related to zeroconf - so it's
specifically for creating a network presence on a network _without_ dhcp
and you wouldn't expect it to have the "right" IP address (it'll be
169.x.x.x, I believe).
