I can tell you that...
... the *BSD Makefiles have a slightly different syntax than the GNU Makefiles
... the *BSD code will have non-linux-supported code in it
... you should have more luck on using a routed which was
    shipped with your original Linux distribution, for example for Red
    Hat: http://www.redhat.com/swr/src/routed-0.17-6.src.html
