Uhm. Where?

While technically true, it is practically worthless for the moment. 
More than one route for a given destination can be entered to the 
kernel (when the RTF_MPATH flag is set with the request), but the 
kernel won't ever use any but the first one.
This change is more "preparing" for future changes than anything else.
