Julian you are on the right track with the ifa_local being the issue.

1. Bring up VPN 
   (no errors)

2. Ping one address gets connect error

3. Instrumentation triggers. I added code so if __ip_dev_find failed,
   it walked the hash table.

net=ffffffff81a12d80

[  393.224228] __ip_dev_find(ffffffff81a12d80, 10.250.0.104) hash=108 failed
[  393.224232] 138: ffffffff81a12d80 ifa_addr=127.0.0.1 ifa_local=127.0.0.1
[  393.224236] 150: ffffffff81a12d80 ifa_addr=192.168.1.11 ifa_local=192.168.1.11
[  393.224239] 249: ffffffff81a12d80 ifa_addr=192.168.100.1 ifa_local=192.168.100.1
