I saw the note about the incorrect mask on the second 10. address; and 
agree that it needs fixing, but I don't think that was the source of 
the log messages.  I ran into the same thing when I had different NICS 
on different IP subnets on the same physical network some time ago - 
that's how I remembered the setting.  That's why there's a sysctl for 
it - depending on your configuration, it isn't actually an error.

Let's see what the OP discovers.
