I recall some issues with the value of the next-hop in the BGP messages =
in the past. Haven't been around Quagga in recent times, don't know if =
this is still the case. If possible you might want to catch a BGP packet =
with tcpdump and verify the value in there makes sense to the other =
side.
Got bitten by this before and took me ages to figure out the other side =
was dropping my updates because the next-hop couldn't be resolved.
