 I don't get what you're trying to do.  You seem to be saying that the 
 970618-SNAP kernel works with the 970618 OS, but "something else" 
 doesn't work.....
 
 Are you trying to compile and use a 970807 kernel with a 970618 OS 
 (including ppp) ?  It's not safe to mix & match like this unless you 
 know what you're doing.
 
 I've had no such problems with routes - sounds like you're a victim 
 of some out-of-sync routing stuff (I think Julian E fixed some 
 problems there recently).
