Doesn't appear like there should be, however, it's often not
a bad idea to use specific masks in your network statements.

Thus, instead of:

  network 208.35.23.12 0.0.0.3 area 0

use:

  network 208.35.23.13 0.0.0.0 area 0

which matches the IP address on the interface exactly.

This approach gives better granularity of control and
avoids masking errors as well as the time spent calulating
the network and mask values.

You might try re-doing the network statements (or even
removing and re-adding the same one on the affected router).
That will cause a re-initialization which may break it out
of its funk.
