Ok, I have attempted to lab this up...config here
http://pastebin.com/53Ebsd7X

I must still be missing something...BGP appears to still use the IGP and go
across the high-cost link when I disable the low-cost link between B-C:

(on B)
2.2.2.0/24         *[BGP/170] 00:12:13, localpref 100, from 10.10.10.1
                      AS path: 174 I, validation-state: unverified
                    > to 10.0.1.1 via lt-0/0/10.2, label-switched-path
LSP-B-C-L2VPN

The other LSPs do drop that should not be going over the high-cost link.
I'm guessing I need some knob to tell BGP which LSP to use or not to use?
