The "File exists" message is quite wrong, since no file creation has been requested - this is about a route. The error message is worthless, stupid, and just plain wrong. Has Linus really allowed such nonsense to be integrated with the kernel? It's a totally cool idea, being able to do Cisco-type stuff with Linux. But if the implementation is this lame, it shouldn't have been integrated at all. Sorry for being pissed off, but please don't contribute anything to Linux that isn't done consistently and right!
