Checked and rechecked. But was not really successful. I found a
proposal for implementing GRE tunnels over OLSR as a solution or to
use Freifunk "special" which switches only in a case there is a big
enough change in a link quality (and is resistant to minor
fluctuations). But otherwise I found mainly arguments that OLSR is
designed to adapt quickly to topology changes so it is not really
possible to devise a way to make gateways sticky.

But I will search around a little bit more. But until then and not so
specific for my situation, what should we do about BSD routing
differences? Leave as it is?
