I am all for people deploying BCP38, but from the original email this is
definitely not a cause for celebration. BCP38 should be used against
single homed customers only if you're doing it by using uRPF. Otherwise
extreme care needs to be taken to make sure traffic isn't dropped because
uRPF does the wrong thing (like it seems in this case).
