You did everything correctly.  The one thing you can not provide is
"sufficient manpower on our end"... alas.

The patch is reasonable and looks like a good addition, so we'll pick
it up one way or the other.  Right now we have two methods to add routes
on FreeBSD with different internal APIs, which is a mess that need to
be unified and cleaned up - so maybe this is a good starting point for
the cleanup as well.
