[Babel-users] no via line in zebra/quagga routes

Okay, I'm starting to understand.  IPv6 works fine, it's only IPv4
that's broken.  (Why don't we all switch to IPv6 and be done with it?)

Babel sets both the gateway and the interface when installing a route,
whether it is local or not.  While this is the standard way to install
a route in IPv6, it's not standard in IPv4, where local routes are
traditionally installed with an interface only, while non-local routes
are installed with a gateway address only.

Apparently, either quagga doesn't like an IPv4 route to have both
a next-hop address and an ifindex, or we're doing something wrong.  I'll
try to fix it later tonight.

Can you confirm that?
