At a glance I don't see any major issues.  I won't have time to do
anything more with it for at least a couple weeks.  I'd suggest filing
a PR with it to ensure it isn't lost.  Ed, if you're interested in it,
feel free to commit.

The one thing I might worry about is that implementing classless static
routes means you have to ignore the default route and I'm a little
worried there might broken servers out there that spew bogus ones.
There's probably not way to find out other than shipping a release
though. :(
