I also got this with my i486 or alpha box (both machine has single
network interface and on which routed is invoked with -q option and
neither of them are build with options GATEWAY). So to suppress it I
told the `routed' not to use rdisc, by creating the file /etc/gateways
containing the line:
no_rdisc

I also got this with my gateway i586 machine (which have two network
interface and kernel build with options GATEWAY and routed is invoked
without any option). So to suppress it, I told `routed' not to try to
send/recieve RIP through the ppp line by adding following line to the
file /etc/gateways:
if=ppp0 passive
because my ISP doesn't provides it. (I also give no_rdisc on this
machine because the routed on it says that `there is no route to
224.0.0.1; yes it's not 224.0.0.2 but 224.0.0.1).

I also got this and apply following patch pppd so that it installs
default route as static:

I don't read the source of new routed or kernel routing code in detail
yet, so I can't say they are right thing or not...
P.S. all machine I mentioned above are running NetBSD 1.2A.
