UGH

You shouldn't need all those routes. Just add `netmask 0xffffffff' to
the end of the alias_ed0 line. Certainly worked for me in my test
setup here. That should allow to lose all thost routes.

(that is assuming of course that the IP address of the ed0 card is on
 the same subnet as the aliases...)
