To add more to this - tracing through in.c in the kernel, I see that when you configure an interface it eventually works its way down to rtrequest - to add a route for the new interface. I believe rtrequest() is the one returning EEXIST which is what causes ifconfig on sl0 to always complain

Well - I've added some printf()s to determine that what I suspected was correct. The route is being entered into the table twice. If looks like in_ifinit() is calling the sioctl() routine, which calls if_up(), which then adds the route. Then, in_ifinit() goes on to add another route and
