Well, at least on my machine here running 2.0.5-snap-0622, it doesn't. I had to kill the nslookup (which hung) and then add the route default, then nslookup did work. All the 'delete all' did was wipe out the entry for my ed0, which I don't yet know how to get back. It didn't re-establish a default entry.
