This line is passed to "ip route add|del" when becoming master|backup.
Assuming from your mail that you already have a default route in your
system, this will not work.
ip route will exit saying "RTNETLINK answers: File exists"

So you will have to "ip route del default dev eth0" before. I think this
could be done with the "notify_master" script.
