Thanks for all the info. I will have a look at this as well. Currently I
think it is possible that route-reflector is not bug free in cases where
you have route-reflector rings or other very complex setups. I only tested
the easy setups till now. Why you get routing loops and black-holes in
your 3 AS setups is not clear (at least for me) but I guess it may be an
issue with a failed update. I have the feeling that when we get a update
with a routing loop in it we should actually issue a withdraw for the
prefix carried in it so the following code in rde.c is looking suspicious:
/* aspath needs to be loop free nota bene this is not a hard error */
if (peer->conf.ebgp && !aspath_loopfree(asp->aspath, conf->as)) {
error = 0;
goto done;
}

I'm mostly offline in the next days so maybe you beat me in finding a fix
for this.
