D) you did not incorporate any of the source specific openwrt
babels init and config mods like

        append_parm "$cfg" 'src_ip' 'src-ip'
        append_parm "$cfg" 'src_eq' 'src-eq'
        append_parm "$cfg" 'src_le' 'src-le'
        append_parm "$cfg" 'src_ge' 'src-ge'


E) And there was a longstanding patch in babels that I hope made babeld,
or was solved some other way...

0001-Allow-routes-with-source-128-for-SAS-on-Linux.patch

It would be best if someone could revert commit:

23e20773d8b5c90dad99702e030ce86ccf3344f3

Until these two functionalities were actually merged and tested
together properly.
