The only reason for this I can see is because bird is determining
reachability on the basis of its FIB only (as opposed to the kernel
routing table) and there is no FIB entry for 10.255.199.0/24
(from show route).

How are such interface routes meant to get into the FIB?

2 further bits of information:

1. bird version 1.3.2-1 (Ubuntu Oneiric)

2. gateway-direct fixes this, but I don't understand why. If a direct
  lookup succeeds, then surely a recursive lookup must always succeed?
