Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: openvpn

When using a PPP connection to access the internet, OpenVPN fails to
replace the default route.

Server's configuration:
push "redirect-gateway def1".

Client's default route:
default dev ppp0  scope link 

Client's error message:
"NOTE: unable to redirect default gateway -- Cannot read current default 
gateway from system"

pppd doesn't set (and doesn't need) a gateway, but OpenVPN assumes that
a gateway was needed for a default route.
