Thank you for the clarification, so is with anything but quagga or frr
the sysctl setting net.route.multipath=3D0 obligatory now?

I used for tests the feed from Peter Hessler's OpenBSD spam trapping
project[1]. On FreeBSD 11.4 I see these routes in net/bird as
blackholed, for example:
x.x.x.x/32  blackhole [bgp_spamd 20:20:43 from y.y.y.y] * (100) [ASzzzz]
They work the same was as routes added by route(8) with option "-blackhol=
e"

With new routing stack, these routes are rejected with the message
above. Now in net/bird, they appear like the example below and import to
the fib (fib number is not equal to 0 in this case) is blocked:
x.x.x.x/32 unreachable [SPAM 19:58:18 from y.y.y.y] ! (100/-) [ASzzzz]

Probably it all should be tested in normal peering, but my initial test
was performed on the old lab setup where multiple fibs and policy
routing[2] were involved. The config was loosely based on the example by
Ondrej Filip from the[2].

Once again thank you for implementing all these improvements into
FreeBSD routing stack and please don't get me wrong, I am just testing
it a bit before migration from 11.4-STABLE, but not complaining about
anything.
