sorry ;-):

  x.x.0.0/24---x.x.0.1/x.x.3.1---x.x.3.0/24---x.x.3.160/x.x.4.1---x.x.4.0/24

batman network x.x.0.0/20.
.0.1/.3.1 is one node with two radios, and .3.160/.4.1 the other one.
and, .3.160/.4.1 lists .4.162 as alternativeNextHop to .3.128.
where .3.1 and .3.137 can see .3.128, but .4.162 can not. So, there is a real
alternativeNextHop to .3.128 ... .3.137, which is listed after .4.162
on .3.160/.4.1. I attach the output of bmxd -cbd8.
But after i really think through it, it shouldn't really matter,
because, if the connection between .3.160 and .3.1 gets interrupted,
.4.162 should probably fall back behind .3.137 in .3.160's statistic.
