I'm not sure what it does to the tc case, unless I botched applying the 
patch, my rtnetlink case doesn't seem to change:

izzy:~/netperf2_trunk# ./testfoo 16.89.133.212
destination address is 16.89.133.212
egress interface 0x6000000000004010 eth6
izzy:~/netperf2_trunk# ./testfoo 16.89.133.212 10.208.0.17
netlink: 8 bytes leftover after parsing attributes.
destination address is 16.89.133.212
egress interface 0x6000000000004010 eth6
