I don't think
there are so many shortest ways that a CSR can't find.
Because sunbnets with CSRs shuld be constructed as follows:

     subnet A                   subnet B
+------+  +------+  +---+  +------+  +------+  +---+  
|switch|--|switch|--|CSR|--|switch|--|switch|--|CSR|--
+------+  +------+  +---+  +------+  +------+  +---+  
    \       /                  \       /              
     +------+                   +------+              
     |switch|                   |switch|              
     +------+                   +------+              
        |                          |                  
      +----+                     +----+               
      |host|                     |host|               
      +----+                     +----+               

Note that 
this configuration is almost same to that of a network
consisting of ethernet hubs and conventional routers.
