Re: Manually-set IPv6 default route disappears after 5 minutes

Hey Kenneth,

(Woops I appear to have lost ipv6@ at some point.)

Ah, right. I only based my comments on 1.55, ignoring the fact that it
might not have been the same in 5.3.

5.3 had 1.40 [0], which doesn't have a [priv_]flush_routes(), but only
[priv_]flush_routes_and_arp_cache(). The priv_ variant says nothing
about AF_INET (mib[3] = 0).

This is not the case in 1.55, as it appears to have been fixed with 1.47
[1].
