Have you found cef exact-route to be correct?

Last time I used this (ASR9000), it was giving wrong results to me. I
think there is entirely separate piece of code for LAG result in
software code and the CSCO EZChip microcode, and different people code
IOS-XR than ezchip, so I think there is failure mode where one code is
updated, and another is not, I hope I'm wrong.

But if I'm right, then the only way to do this, is actually ask the
microcode 'hey i have this packet, do a lookup for it', or like in
CAT7600/ELAM, get lookup results for real traffic.
