It's an almost completely unrelated problem to what shorewall does,
and quagga already does the job of capturing non-trivial routing
setups in a set of config files quite neatly, so the answer is likely
"no".

(I don't know offhand whether quagga would solve your problem, because
frankly I haven't been paying any attention to it - but it's solved
all my dynamic routing problems to date, despite being intended for
far more complex scenarios, so if it doesn't currently work in this
case, any development attention would be better aimed in that
direction)
