Alex Arseniev hit the nail on the head: I'm running LDP (and MPLS
etc.), the next-hop routes were not only in inet.0 but also in inet.3,
with a default LDP metric of 1. I needed "set protocols ldp
track-igp-metric"

and suddenly everything is working as I want it to -- at least I've
not seen anything broken yet :-O

Thank you Alex!

(Now why isn't that the default?)
