I also had this problem and tried to solve the problem. So I subscribed
to this list. :-)

I inspected route.c and found that it ifconfigs SLIP to 0.0.0.0 (instead
of just down IF) because it avoid problem with ISDN. Since, I don't use
ISDN, I just change that line to down interface. And, it works!

Here's detail.
File: route.c
Line: 198-199
- original ----------
    sprintf(buf, "%s %s 0.0.0.0",
        path_ifconfig, iface);
- new ---------------
    sprintf(buf, "%s %s down",
        path_ifconfig, iface);
---------------------
My system: Slackware 3.6 kernel 2.0.36 486DX2-80 28MB RAM

Hope this help others. (And I wonder that why others don't face this
problem!)

Bye,
Joke.
