That's bad. How do I enable "multicast forwarding", or, in other words,
do you know why ripd doesn't do it for be?

On the other hand, I've got another machine with very simple configuration:
one fxp0 interface, one rl0 and one gif0 and started quagga/ripd.
Two points: tcpdump shows that multicasts go out all three interfaces
with right source IP and there is no arp entries for 224.0.0.9 and 224.0.0.1.

I couldn't find what is the vital difference between these two machines yet
(there are so many of them).
