Bird within netns (no OS routing table injection with BGP)

Hi all,

I'm trying to use bird within netns with something like "ip netns exec 
foo bird".

I can see received routes in "show route" but the injection in the OS 
routing table is not done.

Strangely, static routes are correctly injected. With BGP routes I have 
no particulary debug messages, except "Netlink: Invalid argument" with 
bird6.

Using Quagga, routes are correctly injected inside netns.

Any idea about that problem?

* Bird 1.3.7-1
* GNU/Linux (Debian Wheezy)

Regards,
ju.
