Exactly.  I see lack of memory as the only `good' reason to not have
soft-reconfiguration inbound configured on a peering session.  Seeing
what crap^H^H^H^Hprefixes somebody announced to you is very useful.
It scares me a bit that cisco broke this piece of code in a release that
I suppose gets used by a lot of NSPs close to the core of the Internet.
