Remove my previous bogus comment about the relationship between the

static_routes and defaultrouter variables.  I'm glad I looked again, however,
as I realized that setting static_routes to NO in the case of a defaultrouter
would wind up with a bogus value for static_routes.  It doesn't really
hurt anything, but it's still wrong so I fixed it.  I think this whole routing
section of sysconfig needs a revisit - it's getting gross!
