[nsp] hspr prob - can't ping active address

[Robert A. Hayden]

I tried to open a bug against this with Cisco and was informed that I 
couldn't becuase of uRPF being enabled on our interfaces and that I should 
just cope.

Of course, even with the "allow-self-ping" flag on, it didn't matter.

We've sucked it up as "yet another cisco thing that doesn't work like it's 
supposed to" (TACTTDWLIS).  *shrug*
