(At least for me) RFC 2461 is not very clear for multiple-interfaces
cases, so the selection of the outgoing interface is implementation
dependent.
Our (KAME's) implementation introduces the notion of "default
interface", which should manually be specified by the user. The
kernel uses the default interface as the outgoing interface in this
case.
