Such hosts are going to silently discard the ICMP redirect
messages generated by the VRRP router since the message's source
IP will differ from the redirected route's gateway.

RFC1122 don't imposes the above check, so this patch makes

 ...

I don't know if it's a question of terminology but RFC1122 does
seem to ask us to make this check, from 3.2.2.2:

	A Redirect message SHOULD be silently discarded if ... the
        source of the Redirect is not the current first-hop gateway
        for the specified destination (see Section 3.3.1).

And that seems to be exactly what this "rt->rt_gateway != old_gw" test
is implementing.

Furthermore, from a completely pragmatic perspective, pushing this
looser requirement down into the hosts is going to be a deployment
nightmare.

Whereas if we changed the routers to send ICMP redirects that these
hosts would actually accept, you'd only have to make the change on
the routers.  This is several orders of magnitude easier to deploy.

So I'm not going to apply this, sorry.
