olsrd already does this. I'm looking for an explanation why using
ff0e::1 works while ff02::1 fails.

I now have a small test program that happily sends packets to
ff02::1. The problem is that it doesn't pull any tricks
at all. It seems the other way around: olsrd does something that
makes this fail.
