[Olsr-dev] [olsr-dev] Quagga plugin fixes

Hannes,

compiled a debug version (with #define DEBUG in src/process_routes.c) with 
and without spf applied and run it on a real node. I'll attach the output to 
this posting. As you can see, the calculated "hops" value is different. We 
have software, which depends on the hops value inserted into the routing 
table as metric value (e.g. fftrace or OLSR-VIZ).

You may also notice the error msgs regarding 104.129.44.7/255.0.0.0, which 
obviously is a misconfigured node currently spamming our logs with that 
wrong HNA4 config.

Ah - here's a traceroute to an arbitrary node to verify the hops count 
determinded by the spf-less code:

(spam-protected):~# traceroute -w 2 -n 104.193.0.42
traceroute to 104.193.0.42 (104.193.0.42), 30 hops max, 40 byte packets
