[c-nsp] Small Issue With next-hop-self for VPNv4

I am having one small problem, that could be the result of my
misunderstanding the concept, or something else. I have the following
topology:
The topology below is all in, say, AS1
[PE-7600-1: .1]--[P]--[PE-7600-2: .2]--[CE: .3]
I am running iBGP RR on PE-7600-2 towards CE. 7600's (both running
12.2(18)SXE2) have MBGP session and everything works fine. CE has iBGP
session with PE-7600-2 from VRF to PE-7600-2's IPV4 VRF.
PE-7600-2 is configured with "next-hop-self" toward all neighbors, but,
neighbors are receiving original next-hop information.
To clarify, CE will receive routes from PE-7600-1 with next-hop of .1
and PE-7600-1 will receive routes from CE with next-hop .3. I want them
both to have the next-hop .2.
I have found the workaround to configure incoming route-map on sessions
with PE-7600-2 and do "set ip next-hop peer-address", but I think this
is very ugly.
Am I not doing something wrong, or I have stumbled upon something that
should work but just doesn't?
CE is Catalyst 3560, running 12.2(25)SEC, but I think that is not
relevant for this case.
Kind regards,
Marko.
