good pointer! I obviously assumed to much :]

bits 0x2
-> E bit is set in the type 1 LSA
-> ABRs create type 4 LSAs

so I have to figure out why AAA.BBB.CCC.35 is setting that bit
without advertising a type 5 (I don't use NSSAs) LSA :-/
(or are there constellations where a router advertises itself
  as ASBR without emitting Type 5 LSAs?)

Thanks! :)
