BGP rejected by protocol

Hello,

I'm attempting to use BIRD to redistribute routes from a couple
of interesting BGP feed services (Cymru bogons and UTRS) to a
bunch of our edge routers, but I'm hitting an issue where BIRD
isn't exporting the routes to our edge, every prefix is getting a
"rejected by protocol" message in the log.

bird6: edge1 < rejected by protocol 2407:dc20::/27 via [removed] on eth0

Here's a copy of my config with sensitive bits removed:
https://gist.github.com/2bithacker/6561aa4484507c8f2d9d

I think the problem might be related to talking to some peers
from one AS and others from an internal AS, but I've tried
changing them all to the same AS and it didn't help.

Any pointers would be appreciated. I just wish "rejected by
protocol" would provide a bit more detail on why it was rejected.
