I think I see the problem.

You are using --resolv-retry which delays --remote resolution.  At the time
that --redirect-gateway is processed, the remote address has not yet been
obtained.

As an immediate workaround, try getting rid of the --resolv-retry.  I expect
that will fix the problem.

The bug is that essentially --redirect-gateway and --resolv-retry don't work
together.  I don't expect the fix to be very difficult -- it is just an
initialization sequencing problem.
