I should have looked at it much earlier (sorry about the delay), but I
don't this change is correct. This will easily bother statically
installed route (especially) on a point-to-point interface.
There seem to be some try-and-errors in the CURRENT branch, but even
the latest revision (1.69) has a bad side-effect. For example, if you
statically install the following *host* route
# route add -inet6 2001:db8::abcd -host -interface gif0
the latest revision of kernel will eventually remove it due to
unreachability detection, which is unlikely what the administrator
wanted to see.
The key point here is whether the route is statically created or not.
And, if I understand your intent correctly, the host route you want to
install is not really "static" in that it can (or should) be removed
when it's detected to be unreachable, right?
If so, the correct change to the kernel is the patch attached below
(it's against RELENG_6 as of today, which is rev. 1.48.2.14).
