I believe that the ifup scripts will create a route for the subnet

for your one interface.

It should not affect the default route at all as that is typically set
at a higher level in /etc/sysconfig/network
The default gateway is only used if the kernel cannot find a subnet
corresponding to the ipaddress of an outging packet on one of the
active interfaces.

Actually, the more I think about this.... I shouldn't need to set a default GW (other than what's already there) for the new subnet. It's not like these packets have to be routed anywhere specifically. So, why bother with a GW?
