Hello, Starting to configure bird6 for iBGP and ran in a repeatable crash running 1.2.2 from ppa on ubuntu 10.04 LTS x64. as soon as i configure in a protocol bgp it's neighbor like: neighbor 2A00:1388:FFFF::3 as MYAS; bird6 crashes i unset the ulimit core to produce a core file, but no debugging info is included: # gdb `which bird6` core GNU gdb (GDB) 7.1-ubuntu Copyright (C) 2010 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
