Does the machine have a default route, or a route for 224.0.0.0/4?  I've 
seen reports of problems on such machines.

Can you try

route add -host 239.2.11.71 dev ???

I can't ssh to build8st - it prompts me for a password, my key is not 
accepted - can you help me get on the machine?

If that route command fixes it, do you think this is something that 
should be changed from preinstall, or just warn the user and let them 
fix it?
