I'm not sure I agree the ICMP message is bogus. It's true that RFC1122 says that ICMP source route failed errors are only returned for incomplete (i.e. in-transit) source routes, but it also says that complete source routes MUST be passed up to the transport layer. Since we're not passing the packet up to the transport layer, it makes sense to send some kind of ICMP error.
