I don't think so, I even tested inserting the routes with ip route
without running bird. It was a documented behavior in net/ipv6/Kconfig
in the kernel source.
Ah, I see. What was the specific route table entries that elicited this
behaviour? And what kernel version? Will see if I can replicate it on my
system...

I had a system with an address of 2001:db9:1::2 connected to another with an address of 2001:db9:1::3. With one route:

2001:db9:1::3 dev v0  metric 1024

Ping was successful. Adding a route with a wrong source address:

2001:db9:1::3 from 2001:db9:1::1 dev v0  metric 1024
2001:db9:1::3 dev v0  metric 1024

I got a network unreachable message. Adding another source constrained route with the correct source:

2001:db9:1::3 from 2001:db9:1::1 dev v0  metric 1024
2001:db9:1::3 from 2001:db9:1::2 dev v0  metric 1024
2001:db9:1::3 dev v0  metric 1024

Ping successful.
