Well, the RFCs do not really specify what the source address should be, and there
have been numerous times where I've seen weak host model in use on the wire
even with a BSD peer.
This also puts a very big nail through many suggestions we've had over the years
to allow source based path multihoming in addition to destination based multihoming
we currently support.
It might be a good idea to make rp-filter like behavior best effort, and have
the old behavior as fallback. I am still trying to think up different scenarios
where rp-filter behavior will cause things to fail prematurely...
