diald creates a default device to its "internal use" slip connection.
What's supposed to happen is that packets get routed here, diald brings
up the line, and the packets go on out.

If you wanted to bypass diald, you could set up a default route with
a higher priority (metric of 0).

But I don't understand enough about the situation to understand why
diald isn't working.
