This is okay ... network 193.89.36.2 is an ethernet in my (rented) house
in Copenhagen, connected over dialup PPP. When the link is down, the
routing terminates in the loop you see. (gw-1 has a static route to ns;
when the link is down, ns has no route for it, and the packet goes back
to gw-1 on the default route.)
