I do not use realms. I need Quagga to BGP, since one my connection to Internet 
is dual-hommed. But I'm not a provider and do not transit. Soon I'm going to 
check, how will work on BGP xorp and bird. But a few years ago contacted me a 
guy who googled that I talked about quagga on our list. He knew that I build 
DL and just asked me about realms. Apparently, this mechanism enables control 
of the internal structure of the autonomic system. I answered him that you 
compile Quagga with realms. Since that time, I understand that the realms 
sometimes may be needed and upgrading to 0.99.20 I adopted realms patch.
