Please treat this as a bug report. That's why I added the disclaimer.

I tried a number of different things before sending this patch with ack,
because I wasn't able to get the bug report through the filter (mailing 
list,
mod-mail) or noticed (IRC, Github) after many failed attempts to report it.
Some avenue for drive-by bug reports may be beneficial (maybe Github 
issues).
I had given up on reporting this until your reply. Anyway, happy you saw 
this now.

I also suspect del_route needs to be adjusted too, but I have no idea 
what's going on here.

Sorry, I'm not very familiar with the Apple ecosystem and can't figure 
out what exactly happened or should be done here with the necessary 
confidence. Please just take this as a bug report.

Best regards,
