RJ45 linked to EMANE WLAN causes exception

Link an RJ45 to a WLAN. Configure the WLAN to use EMANE. Start the experiment 
and cored.py throws an exception.

Traceback from starting a CORE emulation with an RJ45 device and an
EMANE network.  Note that the RJ45 device is capturing from interface
"usb0", so the invalid literal error is "sb0".
