as far as I can tell this is most probably coming from route.c in the RTM_ADD
case. It means that there's already a route for this interface and a new one
can not be added. This might occur because you already did a ``route add..''
before the ifconfig. It could also be a side effect of sppp_set_ip_addr
for dynamic addresses.
