Hmmm. Are you using a route statement in the <tunnel>.conf files or are you using a <tunnel>.up script? I use the .up scripts on linux (FC1 and WBEL 3.0) and my routes come down when my tunnels come down. The route statement is valid, but I use it only on my windows clients. AFAIK, openvpn uses ifconfig to establish routes when you include a route statement in the .conf on a linux box. That may have an adverse effect that creates persistent routes.
