The problem can be 'solved' by announcing specific IP routes to each and
every host on both sites. Yes, it's gross.

Not all hosts accept route announcements (using which protocol ?).

DHCP seems to be the most straightforward way of doing this.

DHCP provides two options to advertise static routes.

The old "static-routes" option assumes classfull routing and does not advertise a netmask or prefix length. It is derived by the client from the address class :
class A -> /8
class B -> /16
class C -> /24
If the actual netmask does not match the classful one, the option is unusable.

The newer "classless-static-routes" option advertises the netmask (or prefix length, not sure), but is not supported by all DHCP clients and servers. IIRC, the ISC DHCP client and server do not natively support it, you have to define it as a custom option.
