[Fwd: bird and unnumbered interfaces]

[Sörös Jozsef]

Hi!
Once upon a time I suggested and sent a patch to correct the behavior of 
bird in case of using unnumbered routing.
Up till now it has not been added to the release, so I always have to 
make a special release for myself.
Please add this the release!

I suggest this correction in nest/iface.c to get bird handle interfaces 
with unnumbered and addresses correctly.
