Yup, we have seen something like this too. We noticed it with the
default route in particular - we have partial routing and point
default towards our two US PoPs; when one of the tarnsatlantic links
fails, some traffic ends up in loops because of these entries.
I found that I could get the stale entries removed from the FIB by
asserting and then retiring a static route as in
foo(config)#ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 POS1/0
foo(config)#no ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 POS1/0

Maybe I should try that too.
