We noticed a related IOS bug in 12.2(4)T.  If you deleted the interface 
before removing static routes through it, the routes could not be deleted.  
The only way to fix it was to reload a router.

This was partially fixed in 12.2(8)T.  Now the wrong static routes only 
stick to the configuration listing, and are only forgotten on a reload.
