Martin,

If you're using GateD 3.5, and your target interface(s)
is multicast capable, you should be able to advertise
subnets with this config. At this point you should take
a gated_dump (kill -INT) and look at the RIP targets to
assure they are designated as RIP Version 2 multicast
capable.

The only other thing is, like Acee said ... you have to add a metric
to static routes before gated will export them ... it is like a safe
guard against accidental exporting of "illegal" static routes.

So .. try

export proto rip {
proto static {
all metric 1;
}
}

This is off by head but it should work, O .. before I forget,
once you export something, like static routes, you also have to
tell gated to export RIP as well, otherwise it stops exporting
RIP it received, e.g. the above clause will ONLY export statics
routes and NOTHING else ... just incase you didn't know :)
