        Someone may be sending you an invalid or unreachable next-hop
to cause this. I've seen cases where if you have a peer-group
configured (this was in 11.1CC), and the peer-group is for ebgp sessions
not out the same interface, some equipment will ignore the route
if it gets the next-hop of one of the other serial interfaces.

        Check that they have next-hop-self and that you are not part of
an ebgp peer group that talks to multiple providers, that may be able to
get rid of the problem (if that's the issue).
