ipv4: fix multicast losses

Knut Tidemann found that first packet of a multicast flow was not
correctly received, and bisected the regression to commit b23dd4fe42b4
(Make output route lookup return rtable directly.)

Special thanks to Knut, who provided a very nice bug report, including
sample programs to demonstrate the bug.
