Correction, let me rephrase:
Reject is what we don't want. It is about preventing outgoing ICMP as a
response to incoming IPIP packets.
That's why that drop is on the output chain and is "related" to the IPIP.
It is not for outgoing connects, but for responses to incoming ones.
FYI: I managed to solve the issue by writing a loadable netfilter kernel
module that transforms the IPIP protocol to protocol 94 and back. This
allows ripd to run as expected, without "unreachable" messages.
I am testing now...

If you put reject there, you are at square 1.

For outgoing connections this may cause issues as the daemon that
sends the unreachable will also wait till the packet times out before
continuing

Hello,
To all amprd users (this does not affect setups using the kernel
tunnel driver and ampr-ripd).
Due to changes in the 4.x kernels, there's a problem with the system
replying with "icmp unreachable" to incoming IPIP traffic.
This will possible drop incoming traffic, including the RIP
broadcasts (resulting in incomplete route tables).
Please switch to an ampr-ripd setup or filter outgoing icmp messages
on your WAN interface, using a rule like the one below:
*iptables -A OUTPUT -o ethX -p icmp --icmp-type
destination-unreachable -m state --state RELATED -j DROP*
I hope I can find a workaround on this issue.
