How is this supposed to work?  You can't be your own gateway, you need
to point this route to another machine on your net.

If your machine is in both nets (on the same wire), you need an alias
address.

Better quote a little more about your topology.

p.s.: I don't think this makes a good PR at all, it's probably
something that you should have asked in freebsd-questions@freebsd.org
first.  Do only report bugs if you know they are bugs.

Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
