 route.c needs to be modified to report EDQUOT as "You just created a
 routing loop".  Standard C has no error that means this, so FreeBSD
 uses EDQUOT since it's not something that has meaning for networking.
 
 (Or maybe rt_setgate() in /sys/net/route.c needs to undo the change and
 then report some other error; the code is there to detect this
 situation but not to remedy it...)
