Nope. Setting ignore_target_hosts to "host1" causes the router to report a
lookup failure. There's no "host_find_failed = ignore" option either. I
thought maybe using a hostlist might help but hostlists don't seem to be
expanded in a route_list.
I decided to use ${sg...} to convert the $primary_hostname to a "+". I'm not
using hosts_randomize so that should be ignored.
