 Brett,
 
 This patch doesn't fix or change the gateway flag, it only set the interface 
 in route update message.
 
 The gateway problem was fixed in r186308 by Qing Li 
 (http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base/head/usr.sbin/ppp/route.c?sortdir=down&r1=186119&r2=186308&sortby=rev 
  - check the commit log)
 
 Thanks,
 Luiz
