Yeah.  That bug hits here as well, every now and then one of the two
sessions (or both) get stuck.  We have a script that walks all our XR
boxes and verifies that they all see the same amount of prefixes on
both sessions, across all boxes... and then alerts, and we go "clear".

Not exactly displaying best of software quality, but more of a minor
nuisance (for us).
