All,

A fresh install of OpenBSD 4.7 includes the default ospfd.conf (here are 
just the first 11 lines):

# $OpenBSD: ospfd.conf,v 1.4 2007/06/19 16:49:56 reyk Exp $

# macros
password="secret"

# global configuration
# router-id 10.0.0.1
# fib-update no
# stub router no
# spf-delay 1
# spf-holdtime 5

If you uncomment out the "fib-update no" line, and have Ospfd perform a 
syntax check of the file...

$ sudo ospfd -nf /etc/ospfd.conf
WARNING: IP forwarding NOT enabled, running as stub router
/etc/ospfd.conf:8: syntax error

Why does uncommenting a line in the default configuration throw a syntax 
error? Under 4.7, Ospfd will ALWAYS update the FIB, as you cannot tell 
it not to.

Surely, this is a bug.
