For all other cases the tunl0 interface is defined without a remote host ip address, setting the mask to 255.0.0.0 might bypass the static routes setup via rip44d or encap.txt or any other way. Connected routes usually have a higher preference than static routes.

Only if the routes have the same prefix-length. Otherwise longest match wins is still the rule.

So unless you're using the new amprd, usage of netmask 255.0.0.0 might result in issues contacting non-local AMPR subnets.

How many non-local AMPR subnets do you know of that have a prefix length of 8 or less? :)
