default route

[Mike Tancsa]

The initial commit was broken causing routes to be deleted 
incorrectly.  Dont know about 4.8R-P8 but a fix was committed to 
RELENG_4.  Make sure you have

smtp3# ident /usr/src/sys/netinet/if_ether.c
/usr/src/sys/netinet/if_ether.c:
      $FreeBSD: src/sys/netinet/if_ether.c,v 1.64.2.26 2003/09/24 21:48:00
