prefix can have SIDs for many algorithms. Prefix-SID for one algorithm 
is independent and orthogonal to prefix-SID for any other algorithm.

There is no need for all sources of the multi-homed prefix to include 
the same set of Algo-SIDs. Each source can advertise an independent set.

The case is similar to Alg-0 SID, where prefix is advertised from two 
different sources and one source advertise the Alg-0 SID and other does 
not.

thanks,
Peter
