Let me put it another way:

[root@foo /root]# /sbin/route
Kernel IP routing table
Destination     Gateway         Genmask         Flags Metric Ref    Use Iface
192.168.2.0     *               255.255.255.0   U     0      0        4 eth1
xxx.yyy.zzz.0   *               255.255.255.0   U     0      0        8 eth0
127.0.0.0       *               255.0.0.0       U     0      0       26 lo
224.0.0.0       *               240.0.0.0       U     0      0        7 eth1
default         some.name.here  0.0.0.0         UG    0      0        2 eth0
[root@skyfeed /root]# /usr/sbin/traceroute 224.0.0.1
traceroute: Warning: Multiple interfaces found; using 207.168.228.71 @ eth0
traceroute to 224.0.0.1 (224.0.0.1), 30 hops max, 40 byte packets

[root@foo /root]# 

What's up with that "eth0" shit?
