That changed in bird 1.3.0 iirc - add 'gateway direct' to your BGP configuration in bird (it is set to recursive by default in iBGP, and for some reason, it is not working in trivial iBGP setups, always marking routes as unreachable :)).
Ah OK thanks. I can add it (and have) but I couldn't work out how bird was failing to find the nexthop in the FIB in a recursive lookup but not a direct lookup (i.e. what the "some reason" is). You would have thought the first case in a recursive lookup would be to try the direct case! -- Alex Bligh
