I have successfully gotten OSPF to peer with other routers running Quagga, but I cannot seem to make Xorp use RIP.  I am running other routers with RIPv2 multicast and no authentication.  When I startup a fresh Xorp router with the following configuration, I see zero RIP traffic coming from the Xorp router.  When I first commit the changes, all I see is an IGMP join to group 224.0.0.9 followed by an IGMP leave from group 224.0.0.9.  show rip peers shows no peers, however, other Quagga RIPv2 routers have no trouble seeing each other.

I took a look at the log file /var/log/xorp_rtrmgr.log and it looks like
the RIP process is failing to send multicast messages:

[ 2010/05/28 14:26:59 WARNING xorp_fea XrlFeaTarget ] Handling method
for socket4/0.1/send_from_multicast_if failed: XrlCmdError 102 Command
failed Socket not found
[ 2010/05/28 14:26:59  ERROR xorp_rip:1420 RIP +557 port.cc
port_io_send_completion ] Send failed

I have downloaded the ISO containing xorp.ct and will test it shortly.
