Right, thanks for the clarrification.  My main point was to describe why a
node would want to do a second policy lookup when a routing header is
inserted for mobility.  It appeared there was some confusion about this.
Althought this is an implementation detail, the handling of routing headers
by both hosts and security gateways with respect to IPSec processing should
be addressed in the relavent documents (mobility, security architecture).
Rich began the thread with this point.

Thanks,
