[Olsr-dev] drop routes with default-gw

[Joe Gio]

Hi,

I was thinking in the other direction, where routes from the manet are 
redistributed into the "backbone" via quagga plugin.
Having the same subnet sent into multiple gateways "might" not work so 
well hence the need for the host routes.

Joe Giovatto
