An external daemon don't have the topologic information, which is for now the best internet-gateway, so that it can take the global prefix from it. This is the job of the routing daemon, but I think this routing concept should be implemented as an external olsrd-plugin and not in the main olsrd, so that it naturally don't plays with your interface configuration.
