Adding a (non default) route via rc.conf

in rc.conf, put something like this:

static_routes="legacy"
route_legacy="-net 192.168.2 192.168.1.150"

the static_routes line is a list of network names that you want to put
routes in for, then each name gets its own route_name line. As for
your sanity check, I don't see why it would be a problem.
