Can routed units support a battle?

Two relayed FFG answers conflict; most players follow the later email.

Probably yes, at 0 strength. An FFG email answer (later than the FAQ entry saying routed units are ineligible to support) said routed units can provide a Support order's effects but count as 0 strength each, so a Support +1 still adds its +1. The older FAQ text read the other way, and the point is rarely relevant because the area usually holds a non-routed unit too.
