When we first put together the gatedaemon we discovered people sending
RIP packets point-to-point over Arpanet and Milnet.  I believe they
were EGPing with a core gateway or two, and *in addition* sending
point-to-point RIP packets to all of the thus-discovered external
gateways, just to be sure packets to them would not go through an
extra hop.
