Bugzilla Bug 98782

I've been moving toward using iproute2 command exclusively on my system and
have
just goteen to openvpn.  According to the "Optional Features: section of the
file "configure" in the openvpn tarball:

  --enable-iproute2       Enable support for iproute2

This is backed up (somewhat) on the openvpn.net site at:

http://openvpn.net/archive/openvpn-users/2005-01/msg00513.html

I have created a patch to the openvpn-2.0-r1.ebuild which adds this support.

I have also tested this on three systems:  P4, Athlon-XP, AMD64 with a single
server config and everything seems to work ok.  Startup includes:
Jul 12 09:18:54 myclient openvpn-client-myserver[23368]: TUN/TAP device tun0
opened
Jul 12 09:18:54 myclient openvpn-client-myserver[23368]: TUN/TAP TX queue

and i've used this setup for several days.
