I applied a patch to Cygwin which also reports the IPv4 addresses of
disconnected interfaces, fetching the info from the registry. It's
a pity that Windows doesn't correctly report these addresses in the
official API.
This won't work for IPv6 and IPv6-only interfaces. I didn't find a
generic way to list IPv6 addresses except for using the official API.
Since Windows Vista the IPv6 address information isn't stored in the
registry at all, at least not in a publically available, easy to read
place.
