If no one objects (with patch, please :), I will commit [quagga-dev
825].
Btw, to warm up discussion and to solve situation finally in proper
way, info how Junos handles situation. It has two separate keywords -
"primary" and "preferred".
Primary
*******
Configure this address to be the primary address of the protocol on
the interface. If the logical unit has more than one address, the
primary address is used by default as the source address when packets
originate from the interface and the destination does not indicate
the subnet.
Default
For unicast traffic, the primary address is the lowest non-127
preferred address on the unit.
Preferred
*********
Configure this address to be the preferred address on the interface.
If you configure more than one address on the same subnet, the
preferred source address is chosen by default as the source address
when you originate packets to destinations on the subnet.
Default
The lowest numbered address on the subnet is the preferred address.
