Indeed. The iroute table internally works on a "full address match"
principle, so if you have a (say) /24-iroute, then it looks up the
exact IP address once, and then caches the /32 for a time.
This is what the source (multi.c, multi_print_status()) does:
status_printf(so, "ROUTING TABLE");
...
if (route->flags & MULTI_ROUTE_CACHE)
{
flags[0] = 'C';
}
status_printf(so, "%s%s,%s,%s,%s",
mroute_addr_print(ma, &gc),
flags,
-> so, this is what you see: a cached more-specific route.

Not sure. I grepped the source for "ROUTING TABLE" and then looked
at the code. (That is all code that was there before I became involved)
