Also, I needed

before starting quagga to avoid netlink "recvmsg overrun" messages and occasional loss of prefixes. Am I right in assuming that bird will need the same thing for the same reason?
I don't know about such requirement.
In the same debug output, I'm seeing
[...] ??? <<80 messages lost>>
bgp1: Got UPDATE [...] ??? <<198 messages lost>> [...]
I suspected that this might be prefixes being lost because bird isn't increasing the size of the netlink buffer sufficiently and there's an overflow.
No, this is message is related to BIRD debug messages lost and it is unrelated to the netlink socket. -- Elen sila lumenn' omentielvo Ondrej 'SanTiago' Zajicek (email: santiago@crfreenet.org) OpenPGP encrypted e-mails preferred (KeyID 0x11DEADC3, wwwkeys.pgp.net) "To err is human -- to blame it on a computer is even more so."
