The route_data option expands to one place to send a message to. It's
the data part of a routing rule.
The route_list option provides a list of routing rules.
route_data is simpler; route_list is more powerful in some situations.
Think of route_list as a set of domain constraints, a route_data rule
for each constraint, and perhaps some options on each item too.

If you "exigrep 1TIdLP-000KQL-JO /path/to/mainlog" you should get all
the entries for that msgid.
There should be some items using "==" instead of "=>"; the "==" lines
are for deferrals.

The Exim Specification, "51.7 Logging deliveries":
----------------------------8< cut here >8------------------------------
When more than one address is included in a single delivery (for example, two
SMTP RCPT commands in one transaction) the second and subsequent addresses are
flagged with "->" instead of "=>". When two or more messages are delivered down
a single SMTP connection, an asterisk follows the IP address in the log lines
for the second and subsequent messages.
----------------------------8< cut here >8------------------------------
which is evidence in favour of the theory that the retry db is the
source of the problem you're encountering.
I'm encountering problems with bugzilla right now, or I'd include a
shiny new bug number to give you for tracking.
The multiple-hostname workaround should work for now.
