Subject:   routing bug(?) persists (PR 16318)

3.4-STABLE still seems to contain the annoying routing bug that prevents
the correct initialization of a default route with the gateway being in
a non-local network, i.e. like this:

ifconfig_vr0="195.58.183.77 netmask 255.255.255.248"
static_routes="0 1"
route_0="-net 195.58.161.96 -netmask 255.255.255.240 -iface vr0"
route_1="default 195.58.161.97"

(the error message is "network unreachable" while the default route is
being set)

I have been using William Carrel's bugfix for several months without
problems, but for some reason it isn't in the main source tree yet, so
cvsup overwrites the patched net/route.c sometimes.

Does the bugfix break something? If not, why isn't it in 3.4-STABLE yet?
It is necessary for the above configuration (or isn't it? I couldn't find
another way to treat this topology).

Regards,
