The following patch makes sure that on physical interfaces with more
than one virtual interface, the correct source address is used (the one
from the virtual interface). This is necessary for gated to work
using multicast communication with its neighbors on multiple virtual
interfaces.
As far as I can tell, the key.src value which is preset, is determined
by the address the socket is bound to. Meaning: it seems like this
patch doesn't mess up anything. If someone can explain me otherwise,
speak up.
