I have no problem to apply this little patch for every new release.
But what is the difference between these two lines?

1.)ln->data = ifa->iface->index;

2.)ln->data = ipa_to_u32(ifa->iface->addr->ip);

Could there be any problem (perhaps in a BIRD<->BIRD setup) if
"ifa->iface->index" is never used in topology.c?

Thanks.

Best regards
