[CUWiN-Dev] Rev. 4085 disappearing default routes

I optimistically tried this (the flag is -C) on the 115 node, which 
unceremoniously never came back from reboot. Assuming it's broken, I'll go 
fix it tomorrow. In any event it doesn't appear that it's as simple as just 
adding a flag to copy the new-format cuw_config file instead of the old one.
