This appears to be due to the fact that you have zeroconf ("Rendevous" in
Apple-speak) running on your system.

Unless someone can help me get 9.1 to run, I can't verify this, but presumably
you have an entry in your ifup script that says something like:
ip route replace 169.254.0.0/16 dev ${REALDEVICE}
Presumably adding this route will bridge the commonly used zero-conf network
through one of your physical interfaces, for communication with other zero-conf
(Rendezvous) devices.
OS X uses Rendezvous for all sorts of cool things, I'm not sure how Linux/SuSE
uses it. Perhaps someone else can shed some light here...

I've seen this on a couple machines already: on my internal network, using 192.168.1.x, "route -n" is showing

Where is the 169.254.0.0 coming from? I wasn't seeing this with 9.0.
I'm seeing the same with 9.1, and ifconfig eth0 output looks normal.
