>Description:
netstat -r and route show (they use a common code and their outputs are almost
the same now) always show "-" for Refs and Use columns. netstat -r on NetBSD 6.0
was able to show Refs and Use properly.

netbsd6# netstat -nr -f inet |grep -e 127.0.0.1 -e Refs
Destination        Gateway            Flags    Refs      Use    Mtu Interface
127/8              127.0.0.1          UGRS        0        0  33648  lo0
127.0.0.1          127.0.0.1          UH          2      114  33648  lo0

current# netstat -nr -f inet |grep -e 127.0.0.1 -e Refs
Destination        Gateway            Flags    Refs      Use    Mtu Interface
127/8              127.0.0.1          UGRS        -        -  33648  lo0
127.0.0.1          127.0.0.1          UHl         -        -  33648  lo0

Refs and Use are useful for debugging and tests. We should get them back.
>How-To-Repeat:
Run netstat -r or route show.
>Fix:
If we consider only -current, we can fix the problem by adding rtm_refcnt
to struct rt_msghdr and doing rtm->rtm_refcnt = rt->rt_refcnt in
sysctl_dumpentry. However, if we take into account of compat, the problem
is not so easy to fix.
