Public bug reported:

Host routes are added as classless-static-route (rfc3442, option 33)
[1]. However, rfc3442 states: "If the DHCP server returns both a
Classless Static Routes option and a Router option, the DHCP client MUST
ignore the Router option.". The freebsd client follows this
specification [2], and ignores the router option, leaving the guest
without a primary gateway.

A solution could be to add the primary gateway as a classless-static-
route. I don't know how other guests will respond to that setup.
