They get the generic routes, whatever those may be.  The crucial
points to note are:

(a) user configured routes are only for a pair of the form:
          ipaddr  <-->  ipaddr' mask'
    where ipaddr is the configuring host's address.

(b) these tweaks would decay (presumably in harmony with the
    "global" routing protocol's aging mechanism).
