How to determine when reconfiguration is complete?

Hello Kenth,

What I do on my Bird 1.6.4 install is run `ip r | wc -l` and check if I 
have a full table in the kernel routing table. A second method I use is 
check if the Bird process doesn't use a single CPU core anymore. I use 
htop for this, but other cli monitoring tools could be used too.

A line in the logging would be useful indeed :).

Kind regards,
Cybertinus
