hi,
well, if we're talking about workarounds, freerouter already had the knob no 
autostate to have a down interface in the routing tables...
with this commit 
https://github.com/rare-freertr/freeRtr/commit/cc0cb4f563bd5e4da2eeeff6d9c5fa40e3c9f79c
 it just passes traffic in such
a case... (before it dropped everything regardless of the autostate 
configured or not on down interfaces)
now i see hw counters reported from the dataplane that is, it went out 
somewhere on the tofino model....
br,
cs
