Hi, thanks for report. This is an example configuration for version
1.x.x, it is obsolete for version 2.x.x. We forgot to remove it or
replace it with something better. There are two more examples in BIRD
source code, /bird.conf and /doc/bird.conf.example2, that should work
with 2.x.x (although i just noticed there is a minor bug in the second
one).

Also note that we just released version 2.0.1, which fixed several
bugs appearing in version 2.0.0 .
