Latest iproute2 breaks "ip route get" command

From: Fabio Comolli <hidden>

Good morning.

The following logs should explain the problem. In short, the "ip route
get" command with iproute2 v. 2.6.35 does not output anything (and
exits with a 0). This breaks (for example) vpnc.

If I use iproute2 v. 2.6.34 everything is OK. This is with a 2.6.35 kernel.

Note: this happens not only using the default Archlinux package but
also if I download and compile the sources.

Please let me know if you need more details.

Best regards,
Fabio
