Well, the radix tree code used for the routing tables is the same code
for v4, v6, and anything else (is there anything else using it?).  All
I was thinking of changing are the parameters set in inetdomain.

That was my own reaction too.  But I've now tried that change, and,
while the system didn't visibly explode, it also didn't fix the issue;
I still had to pass in zeroed sin_zero in order to get working routes.
I haven't (yet) tracked down why.
