When I try this:

 route add -host pandora -interface em0 -mtu 1500

the routing table entry for pandora changes from:

Destination        Gateway            Flags    Refs      Use  Netif Expire
pandora            00:e0:81:28:21:04  UHLW        0    13496    em0    420

to:

pandora            00:20:ed:76:bc:10  UHLS        0       44    em0

Note the ARP going from pandora's to MINE -- and my machine loses the
ability to talk to pandora, although pandora's packets keep coming...

Does it actually work for you?
