Eeek.  That looks bizarre.  Anything odd in /etc/resolv.conf or /etc/hosts?

Perhaps an 'apt-get --reinstall install ifupdown net-tools netbase'
would help a bit?

Or ... if you're running sid, which versions of those three packages are you
running?  Perhaps there's something broken in one of them?  (Although
the Debian BTS implies that's not the case and the fact that it happened
after a crash suggests otherwise too.)
