John would like to talk with you as I would be
interested to know if
mikrotik can be used instead of the rip44d.
Yes, I wrote a script to create the IPIP tunnels and routes on ROS,
just as rip44d does for Linux. We (HamWAN) are using this script to
add the AMPR IPIP mesh to our BGP-announced subnet. This is necessary
because of the router upstream of amprgw that sends 44/8 back to
amprgw.

Unfortunately, this doesn't run on the Mikrotik device itself* (I
could not find a way to parse the encap file with ROS scripting
language). It will need to be run on another device that has Python
and can SSH into your Mikrotik router. Run it via cron on a regular
interval to stay up-to-date with the encap file. You'll need to
replace the addresses on lines 27 and 28 with your subnet and Internet
address[es].

* It's theoretically possible to run this script, or even rip44d, in a
Linux VM on your Mikrotik router, therefore not requiring another
machine.
