For MPLSVPN/VRF deployments, we refuse to run anything other than BGP
with the CE. We don't want the overhead of per-vrf SPF calculations
especially when the customer network is unstable, it adds additional CPU
requirements to the PE which has to run the SPF algorithm and then
redist this into the MP-iBGP...
