Ondrej,
Is there perhaps a possibility to make this patch as an configure option when running bird?
OpenBSD's ospfd used to do that, but then it was changed to a better method; a carp interface in BACKUP state still causes an announcement over OSPF, but with a high metric, this avoids a blackhole in the time between the previous carp MASTER going down and the BACKUP taking over.
