rt_set_nexthop in __mkroute_output will check the nh->nh_scope value to 
determine whether to use the gw or not.
                if (nh->nh_gw && nh->nh_scope == RT_SCOPE_LINK) {
                        rt->rt_gateway = nh->nh_gw;
                        rt->rt_uses_gateway = 1;
                }

fib_check_nh* is only used when the route is installed into the FIB to verify 
the gateway is legit. It is not used when processing arp requests. Why then, do 
you believe this fixes something?
