The Quagga maintainers were aware of this 4-5 months ago, and that in
order to correctly support OpenSolaris (as well as Linux and FreeBSD 7),
RFC 3678 is the way to go.

more political (i.e. money, control of bandwidth by capital) than
technical... but... researching this further I leave to the kind readers!]
kind regards
