Not exactly. According to rtentry(9):
RTF_PINNED Indicates that this route is immutable to a
routing protocol.
That is, routing daemons should not be allowed to modify such route
but /sbin/route is system administrator's tool, not routing protocol one.
It should be able to remove any route that it could before "pinned" changes. Hence, this commit.
