This is not a bug, nor a feature. This is a feature, that hasn't
been implemented to the end.
Historically, the routes in kernel were static. And they are static
now. Historically, BSD won't permit you to install same IP addresses,
or even addresses in the same subnet, on different interfaces. Now,
FreeBSD permits addresses in the same subnet. But route entries are
still static, and aren't reconfigring when an interface changes its
flags.
I expected it was something like that, but I thought I'd still make a
little noise about it in case someone was right on the verge of having
it fixed :).

p.s. have you seen kern/93305? It looks like my em0 still has a few
problems. Would you mind taking a look?
