Question from someone who doesn't really understand the code...=20
Presently, if I have a /32 route defined, I can't add an alias to the=20
same address to an interface. I was expecting this changes to make that=20
possible, which would be really useful to me, and it seems the=20
suggestion above would make that not possible again...

So, just in case I'm reading the situation correctly, here's my request=20
for it not to happen. :-)
