I've got no bug ID, but it's on case SR 609537689.  SXH3 introduced
another new bgp bug too - the output of show ip bgp neigh xx.xxx.xx.xx
advertised-routes produced badly wrong output. For example it showed us
announcing zero prefixes to one of our transit providers, even though
their looking glass showed them receiving them just fine :-/

That's why I opened the case originally, the ghosting bug I noticed
afterwards and then I quickly moved to SXF since it was causing too much
grief.

Just to make you feel better, the 7604 I reloaded yesterday with SXF15
just spontaneously reloaded...
