I've finally (having had a really bad week with a production mailstore
having blown up on Monday etc. etc.) had time to look at this again. It
seems that Hobbit doesn't like the underscore separating the test name
from the interface name in the rrd file name.

I have now got working interface graphs in the trends page, after:
1)Changing FNPATTERN if_load(.*).rrd to FNPATTERN if_load.(.*).rrd in
the graph definition
2)Changing:
print "${TESTNAME}_$1.rrd\n";
to
print "${TESTNAME}.$1.rrd\n";
in the extra-rrd.pl
3)Renaming all the if_load rrd files, something like this:

# ~hobbit/bin/bbcmd bash
# for i in `find $BBVAR -name 'if_load_*.rrd';do mv $i
${i/load_/load.};done # exit
